he was just 'MCC coaching manual' to my eyes. my taste is more towards languid elegance such as vaughan, gower and martyn.

It’s one record unlikely ever to be held by an Englishman…the way things are going perhaps nobody will have the chance to overtake Sachin!

More records by Root... or co-records now.
Most centuries scored at home:
1.Root- 23
Kallis & Jayawardene also scored 23 at home.
For those wondering Tendulkar hit 22 tons at home.

His action is a double edged sword really, and being at your best everyday puts pressure on him to try too hard which could risk another big injury.
I hope I'm wrong but don't be surprised if Bumrah looks to cut his test career short and play more limited overs cricket instead. Pragmatically not a bad decision given he's aware of what he can achieve realistically.
What I meant by enthusiasm is that I hope he plays at least 70 tests and bowls with full tilt every game.

I agree.

Jumping from 5 to 2 in one innings is quite impressive. Well done Root.

International Debutant
Root is a champion. I hope he corrects his Aus record before he calls it a day. He should be remembered as the great player he is.
Okay so I just watched some of the Indian innings and watching Shardul and the debutant bowl in tandem is ridiculous imo. You might as well have played Kuldeep!!

Won’t average 30 here this summer. Again. He’s like Anderson - you play enough tests you make enough runs/ take enough wickets. Low range second tier player at best in the scheme of things.

Will Joe Root get knighted at some point soon? Will we be calling him Sir Joe Root?

everyone knows he's better than Ricky, Ricky is past.

Fair enough!
You bookmarked my post a week or so where I thought he'll at least score 1 ton in Australia this time..... and maybe 2.
I'll return in kind and bookmark this one when the series is over and we take a glimpse at his average after that.
