TOO MUCH TO BAIR

JONNY BAIRSTOW has not been tempted to watch Australia's latest behind-the-scenes documentary ahead of their clash at the T20 World Cup.

And he remains convinced his controversial run-out last summer has helped England raise their game.

The rivals face off in Barbados today in a match that will have a big say in shaping Group B, with England particularly keen for the points after being rained off against Scotland.

But the tensions of last summer's Ashes still sit close to the surface, with some of the ill feeling flaring up after the recent arrival of season three of 'The Test' on Prime Video.

Bairstow's deeply divisive dismissal at Lord's is a major focal point of the fly-on-the-wall series, with a host of talking heads from the Australian camp basking gleefully in recollections of an incident that many felt compromised the spirit of the game.
