This could be a fairly even contest and that would make a pleasant change.
Agree...Bairstow is very orthodox and a calming affect at No 6...Ali is more of a slasher who throws the bat but can be careless, thought Bairstow played Lyon well and the
damming stat of Lyon getting 10 of his wickets vs left handers this series and only one vs right handers showed Bairstow should have batted between the lefties higher up the order.
