5 reasons why Gareth Batty can make a difference in the England-Bangladesh series

#2 Will to prove himself in a comeback after 11 years

Gareth Batty last represented the England Test team more than a decade ago

It has been more than 11 years since Gareth Batty last donned the whites for England and his comeback is a reward for a consistent run in county cricket over the years. Now that Batty has finally got another opportunity, he is bound to come out all guns blazing in a bid to prove himself in the longest format of the game.

Also, his previous stint in the English Test team was nothing short of a debacle and therefore, the Surrey off-spinner will be looking to make amends. Since Gareth Batty is in his late 30s, he certainly does not have much time left in his hands so he knows that the ongoing series may be his last chance.

This will also inspire him to push hard and get some success under his belt in order to extend his run in the national team.
