While comparing Daryl Mitchell, who surpassed Harry Brook, Ben Duckett, South Africa captain Aiden Markram, and his New Zealand National Cricket Team teammate Rachin Ravindra, he came against Rahul as Ashwin picked the India Test opener over the Kiwi batter.
“Temba Bavuma or Yashasvi Jaiswal? Yashasvi Jaiswal. Jaiswal or Babar Azam? Yashasvi Jaiswal. Yashasvi Jaiswal or Travis Head? Wow! Travis Head. Travis Head or Shubman Gill? Travis Head. Travis Head or Rishabh Pant? Travis Head. Travis Head or Joe Root? Joe Root. And finally, Joe Root or Steve Smith? Current form, Joe Root.”
Joe Root remains the best Test batter
Root remains the second-leading run-getter in Test cricket, right behind the great Sachin Tendulkar, who has scored 15,921 runs in this format, the most by any batter. The current English captain sits at 14,114 runs in second, with Root is 1808 runs behind to surpass the record of Tendulkar.
The nearest to Root is former Australia skipper Steve Smith with 10878 runs. All the other batters named in this video are nowhere near these two batters in the traditional format.
