Hampshire’s James Vince moving to Dubai after attacks on family home World Cup winner James Vince is to step down as Hampshire captain after 10 years and move to Dubai following several attacks on his family home.
“James Vince has signed a revision to the final year of his contract which fulfils his obligation to play for Hampshire Hawks in the 2025 Vitality Blast campaign and confirms that he is not planning to play red ball cricket this year,” the club announced on its website on Wednesday.
Hampshire said Vince had confirmed his desire to prioritise limited overs cricket, with the aim of extending his playing career, in light of a busy red ball schedule in the UK.
Vince, however, will continue playing white-ball cricket for the county in the 2025 Vitality Blast campaign and skipper the Hampshire Hawks.
“After 10 consecutive years as club captain, Vince will also step down from this position but will remain as team captain of Hampshire Hawks.
