England opening batsman Jonny Bairstow has sent out a warning to South Africa ahead of their World Cup opener on May 30.
Bairstow believes his game has improved after playing alongside the likes of Australia’s David Warner in the Indian Premier League.
Bairstow, who struck a match-winning hundred against Pakistan in their third ODI on Tuesday, says: “You’re able to learn different things from different coaches and different players.
“It’s just little things like game plans. He [Warner] hits in completely different areas to potentially myself. I guess it’s method more than anything else.
“But learning from them, as well as the guys here, that can only be a good thing playing under pressure with expectation.”
England lead the five-match series 2-0, with the next game being played on Friday.
