A batsman with sound technique and experience of over a decade in County Championships, Alex Lees is touted to be the next candidate for the opening slot of the England test team. He started to play for Yorkshire since U13 level, and made his first class debut at the age of 17. He could not feature in U19 World Cup 2012 for England due to the demise of his father. At the age of 20 years, he became the youngest Yorkshire batsman to score a double century in County Championships history. He then played a key role in helping the Yorkshire team to lift the titles in 2014 and 2015 season.
In 2018, he shifted to Durham team due to his personal reasons. He then piled up runs heavily, and was the leading run getter in 2019 and was the second highest run scorer in 2021 season for Durham. With a void of reliable opening batsman in England test team, Alex Lees certainly would look to cement his place in the 11.
