But no one who played in the Ashes series averages above 40, and only Root above 35.
Bairstow has three hundreds but averages 31, which suggests a lot of low scores. Stokes averages 26 with no hundreds and four fifties, and he didn't even play in Australia.
Stoneman averages a little more than Jennings...
Buttler (42) and Foakes (42) average over 40, but didn't feature in the Ashes.

He beat the record for deliveries sent down against NZ in 2018, and thats before he played another a year of tests. Has he much left in the tank?

I think he's allowed to be a bit weary. It must be draining bowling so well, and watching a batting collapse defeat all your hard work time after time after time.
