2016: 10 most prolific batsmen in world cricket across all formats so far

#7 Jonny Bairstow (Eng) 1,046 runs at 69.03 in 16 matches. 3x100s, 4x50s. HS: 167no

Runs breakdown – Test: 992 at 76.30, ODI: 54 at 27, T20: NA

The wicket-keeper batsman is the highest run scorer in Tests in the year so far

Following a phenomenal county season in 2015, Jonny Bairstow has gone on to replicate his domestic form in the longest format of the game. In Test cricket, he has been in sublime form over the year scoring heaps of runs but he has hardly played any ODI and T20 games in the year so far.

Only 5 other wicket keeper batsman apart from Bairstow has gone on to score three 140+ scores in their career and the champion wicket keeper batsman from England has achieved the feat within 8 months. He has been the highest run scorer in Tests in the year so far and will look to continue his dream run in the future.
