Hankins attended Millfield School, where in his final year in 2015 he captained the first eleven and scored exactly 1,000 runs.[1] A right-handed batsman who also bowls right-arm off breaks, he made his first-class debut for Gloucestershire against the Durham MCCU side in March 2016.[2] He made his List A debut for Gloucestershire in the 2017 Royal London One-Day Cup on 10 May 2017.[3] He made his Twenty20 debut for Gloucestershire in the 2017 NatWest t20 Blast on 16 July 2017.[4]
On 19 April 2020, George was arrested on suspicion of drink-driving after an accident in Cobham, Surrey where he lost control of his car and crashed into 4 parked cars, writing two of them off and damaging a house. He was bailed to appear in Guildford Crown Court in July. An official statement by Gloucestershire County Cricket Club said that they had been made aware of the incident, were initiating a full internal investigation, but wouldn’t be commenting any further at this time as it was a police matter. He received a 22-month driving ban and a £600 fine.[5]
