Nasser Hussain described Alex Hales as the find of the series after the opener scored three fifties across Englands 2-0 triumph over Sri Lanka. Larry Warford Jersey . Hales responded from a tough winter series in South Africa in which he scored 136 runs at an average of 17 by notching 86 at Headingley, 83 in Durham and 94 at Lords.Hussain feels the Nottinghamshire star has now cemented his place, while the Sky Cricket expert also saluted Englands man of the series, Jonny Bairstow, who followed a maiden Test ton in Cape Town with two centuries against Sri Lanka. Alex Hales scored 292 runs at 58.40 against Sri Lanka Hales is the find of the series, said Hussain. There were questions after South Africa of whether he could do it in an England shirt and while he may not have got a hundred he has proved he is a Test playerWe had a feeling Bairstow was maturing but he proved he is a serious player who didnt just have a one-off series in South Africa.I think that not only is he very talented but that he is also quite strong mentally and determined to improve and prove people wrong. Englands Man of the Series Jonny Bairstow told Michael Atherton that he wanted to prove his doubters wrong Hales and Bairstows success was not mirrored by Nick Compton, who seems set to be jettisoned for the series against Pakistan later this summer following a return of 51 runs at 12.75.Hussain reckons Durhams Scott Borthwick, who has scored 574 first-class runs at 82 in 2016 and over 1,000 runs in each of the past three campaigns, will earn a call-up.Compton seems to implode when things dont quite go his way, so England will be looking for someone in that pivotal No 3 position, said Hussain. Dean Wilson of The Mirror and Lawrence Booth of the Daily Mail discuss the future of Nick Compton and who could replace him for the Pakistan series The selectors will be looking at historical averages, who players are getting their runs against, where they are getting them, and how important the runs are.I feel Borthwick will come in - the only way James Vince might go up there is if they bring in Jos Buttler as wicketkeeper and play Bairstow as a batsman.England and Sri Lanka will now square off in a five-match ODI series, contests Bairstow could figure in after being brought back into the limited-overs fold for the first time since last summer. England are a good side with some very exciting players, added Hussain. They play super, modern white-ball cricket under Eoin Morgan.Sri Lanka are a better white-ball side but they have lost Tillakaratne Dilshan [due to personal reasons] for this series, while Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardena are gone, so I strongly fancy England.Watch England and Sri Lankas five-match ODI series live on Sky Sports, starting with the opening match, at Trent Bridge, from 1.30pm on Tuesday, June 21.

Hickson. He still got a little gassed out there. Obviously, I think not playing and resting and just getting some cardio in was beneficial for him.Tyson Chandler and Rajon Rondo were the other two Dallas starters who sat out the second night of a back-to-back on Wednesday, and their return helped as well.Chandler, who has been nursing a sore ankle, had his 17th double-double with 11 points and 16 rebounds.Rondo, slowed by a mild Achilles issue, scored just two points but had eight assists and nine rebounds while helping hold Nuggets point guard Ty Lawson to 11 points after he scored 29 in the Denver win on Wednesday.The starting five was back together, and the good start kind of carried us through, said Nowitzki, who was 8 of 18 from the field, including 4 of 5 from 3-point range, with nine rebounds.Arron Afflalo scored 16 to lead the Nuggets, who had to withstand a rally to beat the travel-weary and short-handed Mavericks at home after four nights off. Denvers five-game winning streak, tied for a season high, ended in the first of four games in five nights.The Nuggets were outscored 10-2 to start the game and 11-2 coming out of halftime but stayed close throughout. Denver never led, though, and couldnt get closer than a six-point deficit to start the fourth quarter.Free throws were parrtially to blame, with the Nuggets making just 12 of 25. Sheldon Rankins Jersey. The ball wasnt going in the rim either from the free throw or from the field, Lawson said after the Nuggets shot 37 per cent in the first half and 41 per cent for the game. We got the shots we wanted. Nobody was forcing shots or anything. They just didnt fall.___TIP-INSNuggets: Lawson didnt get his first field goal until banking in a 3-pointer late in the third quarter. He did have 12 assists, though. ... Hickson had 13 points and a season-high 14 rebounds.Mavericks: Nowitzki moved into 22nd place on the career list for 3-pointers, passing Mike Bibbys total of 1,517. ... In their loss to Denver on Wednesday, the Mavericks had eight players in double figures for the third time this season, a first for the franchise.THUNDER DUNKSParsons one-handed slam over Hickson brought his teammates off the bench in the third quarter after Wilson Chandler made a similar move on Tyson Chandler in the first half for Denver. Parsons later ended up near Nuggets coach Brian Shaw and Hickson during a break in the action.Coach Shaw was like, Youre going to let him do that to you? Parsons said. I was like, Ill sign the poster and tapped (Hickson) on the butt. Wilson got Tyson bad, though. So I guess were even.OLD TEAM AGAINJameer Nelson, who started the season with the Mavericks, finished with 14 points before fouling out late in his debut for the Nuggets.Nelson was playing Dallas for the second time in two weeks, and with a second different team. The first was with Boston after he was included in the Rondo trade. The Nuggets got him this week in a deal that sent Nate Robinson to the Celtics.Nelson scored in double figures for the first time since Dec. 9, when he had 18 points against Memphis while still with Dallas.UP NEXTNuggets: Home against Minnesota on Saturday.Mavericks: At Memphis on Monday.
