The decision to field first during the toss paid dividends for the home side as Welsh Fire lost a couple of wickets inside the powerplay with 32 runs on the board. With Jonny Bairstow at one end, the wickets kept falling from the opposite end before Nathan Ellis produced a stellar delivery leaving the Yorkshire batter awestruck in the tenth set.
Despite scoring a couple of fours, Bairstow struggled with his score reading run-a-ball eleven before Ellis came over the wicket on the 46th ball and dished a fuller ball right on the money. To up the ante, the right-handed batter wanted a big swing across the line but ended up being early on the stroke and getting beaten on the inside edge of the bat. The white rock clattered onto the furniture, dismantling them but Bairstow was seen holding his pose even after hearing the death’s knell.
The wicketkeeper immediately, left the field with a brief smile looking at the bowler and the Twitterverse found it quite provoking.
Still in disbelief
Bairstow can't believe it 😵

He departs for 12 at the hands of Nathan Ellis! | 📍 Lord's
Loosing credibility
Eion Morgan just said it all in coms. I’m not Welsh. Neither is Welsh Fire. Contrived and Crap. Bairstow loosing his credibility as a star player.

Clean bowled
Bairstow gets clean bowled in the Hundred and smiles like a Cheshire Cat afterwards.

Pretty funny how this comp has ‘league cricket gun playing a midweek T20 for a laugh’ vibes about it.
Same old story
There is nothing new i can say about Jhonny Bairstow. So not saying anything more

Out of form
Johnny bairstow should be nowhere near the england setup in any format. That guy has been finished since a long time.

One more
Another failure by Bairstow 12(11) runs is so mediocre and who gets him out Nathan Ellis who barely gets to play for his IPL team and those pbks clowns can't win anything unless they know which players to play .

Failed
Bairstow has falled TWO balls out of 35🤣🤣🤣
— BlueNoseBear⚽️🏏🐻💙 (@YouBearsssssss)
Unplayable
These Spirit bowlers are unplayable on this strip 🤣 Somehow Bairstow has faced 2 of the 35 balls bowled

Faced only two balls
Jonny Bairstow, opening the batting, has faced two of the first 35 balls
