    "editor1": "<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Birmingham, July 23<\/strong> - England batsman Jonny Bairstow is determined to continue his rich vein of form after earning a place in the squad for the third Ashes Test against Australia starting from July 29.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bairstow was called in to replace an out-of form Gary Ballance. Bairstow&#39;s has been in stupendous form in the English county championships this season that has prompted the selectors to include the 25-year-old in the 13-man England squad. &nbsp;The five-match Ashes series is currently level at 1-1.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&quot;I am very pleased to have been called up,&quot; Bairstow was quoted as saying by the ecb.co.uk on Wednesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&quot;I&#39;m pretty pleased with the form I&#39;m in but it&#39;s obviously going to be different challenges and expectations. &nbsp;&quot;It might be completely different next week - I might get no runs, I might get some runs - who knows. I&#39;m really pleased to have scored the runs that I have and I&#39;ll hopefully stay in that kind of form for the rest of the season, and longer,&quot; he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bairstow sympathised with Ballance, who has made four centuries in his 15 Tests but has struggled for form this summer, yielding just 134 runs in eight innings.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, Bairstow&#39;s main focus is nailing down a regular spot in the team for himself. &nbsp;&quot;I&#39;m disappointed for Gaz who has had to drop out,&quot; Bairstow said. &nbsp;&quot;But it&#39;s something that&#39;s quite exciting and I&#39;m really looking forward to getting my teeth into.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"line-height: 20.7999992370605px;\">&nbsp;(IANS)<\/span><\/p>\r\n",
