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. 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.

The Cardinals introduced their newest acquisition, Cuban shortstop Aledmys Diaz, on Monday. Within the organization, some have compared him to a young Derek Jeter. "He walks like him you can see some of that there," St. Louis general manager John Mozeliak said. Diaz liked to heard that. "He thinks Derek Jeter is definitely the model ballplayer that everyone should look up to, that he looked up to in the opportunities that he had in Cuba to watch baseball games," said translator Moise Rodriguez, a team employee. "Hes a world-renowned baseball player that comes across as somebody thats a leader and somebody that everybody should try to be like." The Cardinals signed Diaz to a four-year deal over the weekend only months after signing current shortstop Jhonny Peralta, a two-time All-Star, to a free agent contract of the same length. Having Peralta will allow the Cardinals to take their time with the 23-year-old Diaz, who will begin this season in the minor leagues and likely be given a chance to learn multiple infield positions. "We plan on being patient with him," Mozeliak said. "He hasnt played baseball in, really, over a year and a half competitively. Its not something where were looking to have him put his fingerprints on the major league team tomorrow. We can give him time to develop and let him, from a talent standpoint, take his time to get back to wheree he was.ddddddddddddquot; Diaz defected from Cuba to Mexico in 2012. The Cardinals scouted Diaz in Mexico and worked him out earlier this spring at the Roger Dean Stadium complex. "I thought he did a lot of things well," said St. Louis manager Mike Matheny, who attended the Jupiter workout. "You are just looking at tools at that point. You can see that hes had some repetitions out there. He knows what hes doing. Swinging the bat, the ball jumped off. Just a guy that you could tell hes been around the game a while." Diaz hit .315 with 12 home runs in 270 at-bats during the 2011-12 season in Cuba. Mozeliak expects Diaz to continue to hit for average with gap power as a major leaguer. "Were very confident that he can be an offensive middle infielder, specifically a shortstop," Mozeliak said. Diaz went through practice with his new team before Mondays game against Detroit, but it will be some time before he appears in a major league spring training exhibition. Later this week, he will return to Mexico to finalize his work visa. Until that issue is cleared, Diaz can work out with the big league club but can only play in games on the back fields. "Its always been his dream to try and compete at the highest level in the world," Rodriguez said. "Obviously this represents that. Yeah, there are some challenges and difficulties. But for him, being able to come here and try to compete with the best in the world in the industry is something that hes always looked forward to doing."
