Rootâs defenceBBC

Joe Root has made at least one half-century in each of the six Tests following the Rajkot reverse, including three hundreds , culminating with a sublime 143 against Sri Lanka at Lord's on Thursday .
Root's reverse-scoop became a symbol of the revamped England , but a threat to the effectiveness of their greatest batter.
Alastair Cook , Rootâs predecessor as Test captain, said Root would have been over-conscious to make sure he wasnât the person that didnât buy in.
Root needs another 198 runs to overtake Cook 's 12,472 Test runs in Tests .
Sachin Tendulkar has 15,921 Test runs, while Cook has five hundreds in Australia .
Root is now roughly the same age as Cook when the opener ended his Test career in 2018 .
