'Bairstow At His Best When He Has A Point To Prove', Says Root Ahead Of Wicketkeeper’s 100th Test
Bairstow will become the 17th men's Test player from England to play 100 Test matches in the series finale against India. Citing how Sir Geoffrey Boycott inspired Bairstow to convert fifties into hundreds, Root recalled how it fired him up to prove a point, a trait which has now become synonymous with the wicketkeeper-batter.
"He likes to wear his emotions on his sleeve which I think makes him what he is. It brings the best out of him. A good example of that was at the end of one of the seasons at Yorkshire when he had just broken into the first team.
