"Above Everyone...": Ex-BCCI Selector Says Joe Root is "Far Ahead" Of Virat Kohli, Steve Smith And Kane Williamson
Joe Root is the toast of the cricket world right now after becoming only the 14th batter to score over 10,000 runs in Tests. He became just the second England batter after Alastair Cook to score 10,000 Test runs during a match-winning hundred against New Zealand at Lord's on Sunday. The 31-year-old Yorkshireman's typically composed 115 not out took England, who had been faltering at 69 for four, to a target of 277 and a five-wicket victory over the World Test champions with more than a day to spare.
