As a cricketer, Bairstow plays internationally for England in all formats and represents Yorkshire in domestic. He also played in multiple Twenty20 leagues, including for Sunrisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League.

Bairstow has hit 600 in eight appearances this year, as many as he managed in his first 79 games for England.

He began this year with his hundred caps Ashes in Sydney before playing in another test in the Caribbean. The right-handed cricketer walked out of his current team Punjab Kings which played in the Indian Premier League and before returning to Test cricket for England.

Despite a lack of training, Bairstow managed to perform and made a shot-a-ball 16 at Lord’s. He got praise from England bowler Broad as a teammate.

Bairstow said that he was playing well because he could do anything he wanted to do before the test. He went on to say that freedom had supported him to perform well.
