Twitter Reacts After Root Steps Down As England Men's Test Captain
Joe Root on Friday stepped down as England Men's Test skipper and this decision comes after the side lost the Test series against Australia and West Indies earlier this year. Root holds the record for winning most number of matches in the longest format as England captain (27) and he is ahead of Michael Vaughan and Andrew Strauss. As soon as Root's decision was made public by the England and Wales Cricket Board, Root was congratulated on a successful tenure as captain of the Three Lions. Former England captain Michael Vaughan also congratulated Root for giving it all as a captain with very little support for the red-ball side.
