Totally Unselfish, With An Ability To Change The Game, Says David Lloyd Ahead Of Jonny Bairstow’s 100th Test
Was Mahendra Singh Dhoni: Ahead of Jonny Bairstow featuring in his 100th Test match when England play India in the fifth and final match of the series at Dharamshala on March 7, former cricketer David Lloyd hailed the wicketkeeper-batter for being on the verge of achieving the landmark by lauding his totally unselfish nature and ability to change the game.
Bairstow has endured a lean run on the tour of India so far, making only 170 runs in the first four matches at an average of just over 21. He is now all set to become the 17th men’s Test player from England to play 100 Test matches.
“I never doubted he was a player who was going to make it. Why? Because of his style: totally unselfish, with an ability to change the game. It is so important in Tests to put pressure back on the opposition.”
