• Leg spinner voices doubt over Headingley future after furore
• ‘If they don’t see value in me, I have to think about the future’
Jonny Bairstow believes the Yorkshire hierarchy will be secretly “chuffed” at Adil Rashid’s Test call-up despite the leg spinner accusing them of being disrespectful towards him in their public response to the news.
Rashid’s return for Wednesday’s series opener with India highlighted the current impasse that has seen the player eschew four-day cricket this summer, with his club’s chief executive, Mark Arthur, asking whether England “know what they are doing” to the domestic game and the director of cricket, Martyn Moxon, comparing counties to “doormats”.
