England batsman Alex Hales who was playing in the PSL for the Islamabad United raked up a storm after he took to Instagram and uploaded a picture of the food offered to him for breakfast as he captioned it as 'Toast, omelette, and, baked beans'. The photo posted by Alex Hales on his Insta story included two poor quality eggs and a slice of bread. The Alex Hales PSL food image went viral in no time as several reports started doing the rounds stating how Hales had taken a shot at the PCB for the food's quality. With the PCB facing criticism from all around after Hales’ post, the England star himself took to Twitter to clarify his post. It all started when a Pakistani cricket journalist took to the social media platform to share Hales’ post and wrote: “It seems Alex Hales might not have been happy with the quality of food served to him at breakfast time during the PSL”

Hales noticed the tweet and replied to it quickly to make things clear. The right-handed batsman clarified that there was no issue with the quality and he posted the photo only because the order was incorrect. Hales also stated that the food and hospitality in Pakistan have been excellent as he wrote: “It was one meal where the order was incorrect.. I found it funny, nothing more. The food and hospitality here has been excellent, hope this clears it up.

”The sixth edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL 2021) that got underway in the country on February 20, was postponed indefinitely with immediate effect on Thursday after three more players had tested positive for COVID-19, thus bringing the tally of COVID-19 positive cases in the PSL's bio-bubble to seven, out of which six were players. The first case was reported by the PCB on March 1 when Australian leg-spinner Fawad Ahmed tested positive for the virus before Match 12 of the season. At the time of postponement, only 14 games were completed in the PSL 2021
