The Ashes – England’s Jonny Bairstow looking to complete perfect summer by beating Australia
Jonny Bairstow says England’s World Cup win is assured of its place in the history books regardless of what happens in the Ashes – but he is desperate to complete a golden summer in style.
It is a little more than two weeks since Yorkshire’s Bairstow played his part in one of the most dramatic finals in sport, one which drew more than eight million viewers as the national side’s return to free-to-air television ended in glory.
Bairstow would dearly love to have an unprecedented double on his cv but is confident that the positive impact of England’s tournament triumph will linger long after the five Tests against Australia are in the record books –win, lose or draw.
