Alex Hales is being called the MOST unlucky cricket player! During a recent tournament in the UK he took two shots to the nuts back to back.
Hales hit the ball with the cricket paddle causing it to bounce and nail him in the groin. After a few moment he composed himself and stepped to hit again…and the SAME THING HAPPENED!

Hales survived and had a pretty good sense of humor afterwards about. He tweeted about the injury causing minimal swelling but maximum pain!
Appreciate all the messages of concern after last night.. 🥜 It’s great to know that my well-being was at the forefront of everyone’s thoughts and that no one found it funny in the slightest!Unfortunately it’s worst-case scenario today with minimal swelling and maximal pain 😢
