Jonny Bairstow
England wicketkeeper-batsman Jonny Bairstow feels that leg-spinner Adil Rashid will be able to put aside the rumblings his selection to the England Test team has generated and continue his form from where he left in the one-dayers against India.
Rashid has not played any first-class game since September last, but Bairstow. who is Rashid's teammate at Yorkshire, feels the leg-spinner has enough maturity to deal with the challenges of adapting to the longer format after a gap.
"I think he has matured a lot. If he is landing his leg-spinner, if he is landing his googly, he just has to do it a few more times other than the 10 overs he has been bowling," said Bairstow on Saturday.
