Before today I would've been tempted to say Bairstow.

Scoring tons for fun in FC and then getting a second baller. But today he showed a bit of class.

I am still going to shoot with my original, and now arch enemy, Adam Lyth

To be fair to Ron Weasley if you received that delivery 2nd ball or when you were on 200 there's not a lot you could have done...
Even KP would've been in trouble, even though he's "batting as well as ever" ;)

Was definitely a good ball he got!

It just appeared to smack of the old Bairstow, caught in the headlights.

That's a bit harsh on Hazlewood, he was not out :-)

I thought Prior exceeded the talent he had personally

He had some very soft dismissals, thought his batting could of pushed on! Steven Davies possibly another one on that list
