Joe Root Hits 25th Century against West Indies


Joe Root: Been the rock quite a while carrying the uninspired flaky England batting line up. A truly generational talent in the world of cricket. Taking the captaincy charge from Alastair Cook, it took quite a toll on his average but since January 2021, Root took the word elevation portentous and put it into action and once again established himself as a batsman to reckon with by rooting himself deep into some serious consistency. 


25the Century for Joe Root! That's a SILVER

THE FABULOUS 4 DOOR

Joe Root’s talent with the bat is often neglected by the mainstream media compared to his three arch-rivals(competitors) but the stats speaks a volumn.

Joe Root has all the potentiality in the world to be the greatest ever batsman for England. With age on his side, Cook's run tally isn't safe as long as he's around on crease and keep up with this consistency.
