He should have been picked as a batsman. Granted he’s not done much with that this series but his previous form last summer probably meant he was worth a place. Playing him as a wicket keeper ahead of a world class one is one of many things that’s cost us the series. Should have been Foakes ahead of Ali for this. Hoping he proves me wrong by getting some much needed runs now but not holding my breath.

The series started off well for Bairstow with the bat - he scored 78 in the first innings at Edgbaston at a run a ball - but it's all gone downhill from there
