Joe Root becomes the second youngest player to score 12,000 Test runs during the third Test against the West Indies. He joins Alastair Cook in this elite club and surpasses Brian Lara’s record. Despite not being the quickest, Root achieves this milestone in 261 innings, second only to Cook.
Joe Root is England’s all-time leading run-scorer, with 19,355 runs in international cricket and 11,940 in Tests. He leads by nearly 4,000 runs over the second-highest English run-scorer, Alastair Cook.
Though all the players still have some game within them, some aspects like the test captaincy would be dearly missed by the fanatics. Here’s a simple and noteworthy summation of the ‘Fab-4’, making it an ode to providing some memorable cricketing displays.
