He also arrives off the back of an outstanding summer of 2022 in short form cricket for both his county Yorkshire and his side in The Hundred, the Northern Superchargers.Adam speaks with us about his growth from a player who's played seven Tests for England into a genuine three-format player, as well as reflecting on his continuing international ambitions.Then we hear from Desert Vipers CEO Phil Oliver, and Sean Morris, the founder and CEO of 1.5 Degrees Sport, about their groundbreaking partnership that starts with this ILT20. The duo spoke with radio station Dubai Eye 103.8's Agenda programme to discuss the agreement that will see the players using electric scooters to get about during the tournament but, as you’ll hear, that will be just the first step towards highlighting the issue of climate change and, more importantly, leading the way in cricket by trying to do something about it.https://www.thedesertvipers.comhttps://twitter.com/TheDesertVipershttps://www.instagram.com/thedesertvipers/https://balqiscapital.com
