Johny Bairstow has been carrying his poor form for quite a while now.
While their coach Brendon Mcculum is positive for his 98 test playing wicketkeeper, who is playing as pure wicketkeeper now, England will be tempting to try this solid middle order batsman against India in 4th test in Ranchi.
Dan Lawrence, who has played 11 tests so far with 4 fifties to his name which includes a 91, was part of the England team when they toured India in 2021.
In the test match in Ahmedabad, he showed good resilience against Indian spinners and contributed with 46 and a half century in second innnings in England total of 205 and 135.
He can even bowl his “offies”, which can turn out to be more than useful for his team.
Not in scheme of things, after the “Bazball” revolution, time seems just perfect to give the 26 year old a much needed come back in the longer format and he will be practicing hard in the nets in coming days as he himself know there is a definite chance.
