ICC Men’s World Cup winner and local hero Jonny Bairstow wants to help unearth the next generation of cricket talent in Yorkshire by driving youngsters to attend an All Stars Cricket ‘Have-a-Go’ session.
Jonny Bairstow, said: “Winning the World Cup was so special and it’s only now just sinking in. Seeing first-hand the support from young children at The KIA Oval the following day made us realise the potential impact our win could have on inspiring future generations to pick up a bat and ball.
