Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn this episode we speak with two key figures in the Desert Vipers set-up - star opening batter Alex Hales and Head Coach James Foster.Alex will arrive at the ILT20 off the back of a stellar return to international colours, helping England to win the Men's T20 World Cup in Australia, and in our chat with him he reflects on that success and whether it makes him a marked or a feared man in the upcoming tournament. Alex also lets us know whether a ODI recall is on his mind after his T20I exploits and he gives us an insight into his preparations and match-day mindset as one of the most destructive T20 batters in the business.James gives us the lowdown on three recent additions to the Vipers roster - Scotland left-arm spinner Mark Watt, England left-arm fast bowler Tymal Mills and left-hand top-order batter Adam Lyth - and he assesses the combinations that the side has at its disposal. He also looks back at the Men's T20 World Cup and tells us that the Desert Vipers' green credentials, showcased through a sponsorship with 1.5 Degrees Sport, are a perfect fit for his family.https://www.thedesertvipers.comhttps://twitter.com/TheDesertVipershttps://www.instagram.com/thedesertvipers/https://www.batforachance.org.uk/https://theplasticpledge.com/https://tickets.virginmegastore.me/ae/group/venue/50/desert-vipers?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAab9fx_-_nYuzYvHADezZlIcCDI_Q1-MgUVPSzZh33ngq5Qp5aBuOZSl_ic_aem_IooLlA6jU_qbtCFRjyV67Q
