Bairstow, a World Cup and Ashes winner, averaged 36.39 from his 100 Tests, though that dropped to 31.11 in 11 matches after his serious leg injury
Jonny Bairstow has criticised the England set-up, suggesting they need to bring "the care back in the game".
The debate around England's dismal Ashes defeat continued on Monday when it was confirmed coach Brendon McCullum, director of cricket Rob Key and Test captain Ben Stokes were to remain in their posts.
Wicketkeeper Bairstow was a key player in the early success under Stokes and McCullum but was dropped in 2024 and has not returned to the side since.
"You need the care back in the game," Bairstow said.
