Jonny Bairstow says he will be "raring to go" against India after completing his rest period. Bairstow is one of three players who have been rested for the first two Tests in India and are presently in England.
"If they hadn`t given me the break now, then when? It`s the way of the world at the moment. There`s no one who plays all three formats who is doing the whole tour," Bairstow was quoted as saying by Evening Standard.
