(Reuters) - Jonny Bairstow is keen to return to England's test squad and also wants to help the team retain their 50-overs World Cup title in 2023, the 30-year-old has said.

Bairstow played the last of his 70 tests in South Africa in December and was left out of last month's home series against West Indies as well as the first test against Pakistan, beginning on Wednesday.
