TeThe Fabulous Three includes Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara, Virat Kohli, Steve Smith and Kane Williamson after the Ricky Ponting era.
However, under the watchful eye of Aakash Chopra, Joe Root has become the star to beat this fabulous trio. Under no circumstances should the route return to the pavilion without scoring a century, there is so much consistency and form! There is only one answer from active cricket to the question of who is the best batsman in Test cricket – Joe Root! Those who praise Virat Kohli should know the glory of the root. Virat has scored 27 Test centuries while Joe Root has scored 17 centuries. While Kohli, Smith and Williams struggled to find the century, Root averaged 57.28 and scored 2371 runs after 2021. Root, who has been consistent in Test series including the Ashes, has jumped from 17 centuries to 27 in astonishing form.
Root scored more runs in England, where batting was difficult. Root’s Test run tally reached 10,194. If this trend continues, Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 15,921 runs will be Joe’s!
Joe Root tops ICC top batting rankings, beating Australia’s Marnus Labushan It was only after the captaincy was vacated that Root rose to explosive form. The 31-year-old, who scored 115 not out in the second innings against New Zealand at Lord’s, hit 176 off 211 balls in the first innings of the Nottingham Test. With this performance, the route gained 897 rating points. The England international has moved up five rating points behind the Australian.
