Jonny Bairstow to score over 22.5 runs

England batsman Jonny Bairstow scored 90 runs off 53 balls in the first T20I on Wednesday. His innings consisted of three fours and eight sixes.

He failed to get going in the ODI series against India but scored 38 crucial runs to help his team win the second ODI by 100 runs. In the following ODI series against South Africa, he scored 63 and 28 runs in the first and second ODI respectively. The right-hand batter did not get a chance to bat in the rain-marred thirꦬd ODI.

Malan, the number fourth ranked T20I batsman in the world, has played a total of 40 T20I matches and scored 1399 runs at an astonishing average of 41.14.

Quinton de Kock failed to get going in the first T20I and was dismissed for two off four balls, but regardless, we expect the quality batter to bounce back in style in the second T20I. Ahead of the T20I series opener, Quinton de Kock scored unbeaten 92 runs off just 76 deliveries in the rain-marred third ODI against the Proteas. Following the IPL 2022, he was part of the South Africa squad for the 5-match T20I series. However, he could manage scores of 22 and 14 runs in the two innings he came out to bat.
