England keeper-batter Jonny Bairstow wasn't impressed as the crowd mocked 'Bazball' during the 5th and final Test against India in Dharamsala. In a video that has gone viral on social media, Bairstow yelled at the crowd while fielding as they were chanting 'Everywhere they go, Bazball gets battered' to a rhythm.
England arrived in India with plenty of promise for the five-Test series and even won the opening match in Hyderabad, further vindicating their aggressive approach to the format. However, the Ben Stokes' men found themselves on the receiving end in the remaining Tests, losing comprehensively. The final Test in Dharamsala finished in an innings defeat.
Jonny Bairstow plays short bursts of aggressive innings in his 100th Test:
In what proved to be an emotional moment for the 34-year-old as he featured in his 100th Test, he failed to make the occasion count. The right-hander looked enterprising in the time he spent at the crease, hitting 29 off 18 deliveries in the 1st, followed by 39 off 31 balls as Kuldeep Yadav got the better of him twice.
England won an important toss in Dharamsala and opted to bat first. The tourists were off to a promising start and reached 175-3 at one stage before collapsing to 218. Centuries from Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, followed by half-centuries from Devdutt Padikkal and Sarfaraz Khan underpinned India's tall score of 477.
Ravichandran Ashwin, who took 4 in England's first innings, added 5 more to his tally in his 100th Test to break Muttiah Muralitharan.
