News summary

Jonny Bairstow has been excluded from England's white-ball squads for the upcoming series against Australia, a decision that has raised eyebrows given his long-standing contribution to the team. National selector Luke Wright expressed his disappointment for Bairstow, emphasizing that the 34-year-old can still regain his spot if he finds his form after struggling since a serious leg injury in 2022. Wright reassured fans that this exclusion is not the end of Bairstow's international career, stating, 'One thing Jonny will do is fight back, and I hope he does and gets himself back in the team.' The selectors have opted for younger talent, including five uncapped players, to provide fresh opportunities. While Bairstow's recent performance has been overshadowed by emerging players, including Jamie Smith and Phil Salt, Wright remains hopeful about Bairstow's potential return to top form. The series against Australia, starting on September 11, is seen as a chance for the new players to shine while Bairstow aims to reclaim his position in the national setup.
