Alex Hales believes he has "changed" after being handed a second chance by England due to Jonny Bairstow's 'freak golf injury'.
Hales was added to England's T20 World Cup squad as a replacement for the injured Bairstow, ending an international exile that has lasted three years. The explosive opener has not represented England since 2019 after failing a second recreational drugs test, but is now set to feature against Pakistan this month ahead of the World Cup.
Speaking after England arrived in Pakistan, white-ball captain Jos Buttler suggested he is a "different person" now. "There's been a lot of water under the bridge, I think," Buttler said.
