Hales and Rashid have one day International contracts, as does butler/Plunkett/wood so it's these guys that will be following together you would think.
hales has released himself from all championship cricket, so he plays for England in limited over cricket, and for Notts
Apart from that he can play for whoever he wants if there are no Notts or England games.
That's as I understand it but please correct me if I'm wrong.He will of taken a pay cut from Notts, not that he is bothered you would not think.
Oddly enough....very oddly actually I read today Morgan is available for all cricket from the start of this season with Middlesex.
In the recent past, Morgan and Middlesex had an 'agreement' he was not picked. Whether he is/was good enough is a mute point, but he was not going to be selected in the past regardless.Looks like that might change for him.
Anyway, it's got to be Butler next. Personally I think it's a bit of a shame this is happening, but do you blame the players? Definitely not, sport is a short career, they cash in when they can.By opting out they might prolong their limited over careers.
I just worry about Stokes , he is a our diamond along with Root, I cannot see both playing all 3 forms of the game much longer.
