Hain takes England step
Sam Hain has been persistently knocking on England’s door. And last summer it was answered with a call up to the squad for an ODI series against Ireland.
He duly delivered with 89 on debut and Sam will be looking for another stand-out season in 2024 to further his claims for more international honours.
Hong Kong-born Hain, who was raised in Australia by English parents, showed huge potential as a teenager.
Aged 18, he broke Ian Bell’s record to became the youngest man to score a County Championship century for Warwickshire and he has been breaking records for fun ever since.
“It is such an honour to be capped and something I have been striving for a while. One of the reasons I have been playing is to try to get that white bear on my head.”
