SPR Sep 2019 11:51am, 7 Sep 2019 29,188 posts	0 SPR Although given stats just quoted on TMS, Bairstow just did a Bairstow.
njosmith Sep 2019 11:57am, 7 Sep 2019 375 posts	0 njosmith Bairstow does get bowled too often but that was a very good ball.
SPR Sep 2019 12:00pm, 7 Sep 2019 29,189 posts	0 SPR ...Which means he shouldn't have been trying to drive it. TMS just said that he has the 5th highest percentage of bowled dismissals for those that have been out at least 100 times.
njosmith Sep 2019 12:10pm, 7 Sep 2019 376 posts	0 njosmith Well it was a good ball because it looked driveable and then swung/seamed in. Not a lot Bairstow could do in my very amateur opinion.
SPR Sep 2019 12:13pm, 7 Sep 2019 29,190 posts	0 SPR Hmmm, maybe but not the situation for the shot. Could close the gap between bat and pad although he'd have been LBW. Also, doesn't his percentage suggest that type of thing happens to him quite often? Stokes gone, we're ruined.
