Jonny Bairstow was England’s hero as he bludgeoned a record and quite remarkable century to fire them to victory over New Zealand in the second Test at Trent Bridge.
The Yorkshireman hit 14 fours and seven sixes in a staggering ton – a ninth of his Test career – that came from 77 balls, just one delivery shy of Gilbert Jessop’s 120-year-old all-time English record.
