Jonny Bairstow’s rise in ODI cricket over the past couple of years has been a phenomenal story. The 29-year-old has played some scintillating knocks for England in the recent past and has been a key figure in England's ODI and T20I success.

A player with a vast array of strokes in his arsenal, Bairstow showed his hitting abilities during the Indian Premier League in April and also for England in limited-overs cricket. His strike rate in ODIs is 107, which says a lot about his aggressive mentality and approach.

He has scored seven hundreds in just 57 innings with the highest score being 147*. Capable of playing long innings, Bairstow could be one of the important players for England this summer. He plays fearless cricket and has a huge chance to break Rohit Sharma’s record.
