It is my pleasure to formally induct two inductees
Rashid Khan and Alex Hales
Well done gentlemen, turning your back on red ball cricket. Especially Rashid who basically would be close to a lock in for the England test side this year.

England spinner opts to focus on white-ball cricket and not play first-class games in 2018
England leg-spinner Adil Rashid says he has not turned his back on Tests despite opting against playing first-class cricket with his county side Yorkshire in 2018.
But former Test skipper and fellow Yorkshireman Michael Vaughan has labelled the 29-year-old's decision "strange" given England are currently crying out for a frontline Test spinner.
Rashid, who took 38 wickets in 10 Tests in 2015-16, is England's premier spinner in both ODI and T20 cricket and has opted to play white-ball cricket only for Yorkshire this season.

Opener Alex Hales is the latest Englishman to turn his back on Test cricket, signing a two-year deal with county side Nottinghamshire to play white-ball cricket only.
Less than a week after leg-spinner Adil Rashid turned down a red-ball deal with his county side Yorkshire, his ODI and T20I teammate Hales has gone down a similar path
