goose Posted August 29, 2024 Share Posted August 29, 2024 root should retire before he gets there in the spirit of cricket. Link to comment
putrevus Posted August 29, 2024 Share Posted August 29, 2024 If he plays 200 tests like Sachin he will easily score more runs than Sachin. Link to comment
Majestic Posted August 29, 2024 Share Posted August 29, 2024 Can Joe Root surpass Sachin's tally within 329 innings? Unlikely. Link to comment

It is not the same when you lose the form and start declining. Steve Smith, for example, in last 65 innings has scored 2521 runs only at average of 45(2020-present). Link to comment

Don't think his form is dipping anytime soon. It's only a matter of time he surpasses Tendulkar aggregate. The only question is if he will take fewer or more innings to achieve it. I'm sure he could surpass it if he manages to score some big 100s or 200s. Link to comment
Stan AF Posted August 29, 2024 Share Posted August 29, 2024 ECB has made england play 10 tests already this year. And they are yet to play 7 more in this calendar year ( 1 - SL; 3 - Pakistan & 3 more with New Zealand). He will cross 13k easily before end of year. Link to comment

jf1gp_1 Posted August 31, 2024 Share Posted August 31, 2024 heard same for cook then smith then virat and now root. Joe will be 34 in dec. he is 3.5k+ runs behind basically he need 3 exceptional years or 5 good year. Link to comment

Blud is in the best form of his life now. Link to comment
Stan AF Posted August 31, 2024 Share Posted August 31, 2024 Once upon a time people laughed at Joe Root Virat Kohli comparisions as well. Link to comment
putrevus Posted August 31, 2024 Share Posted August 31, 2024 Root since 2021 has found new gear, he has scored 16 100s, he has been awesome.His technique is so simple with least moving parts. Link to comment
Gollum Posted August 31, 2024 Share Posted August 31, 2024 Kohli won't even get 10k test runs, Root will get 17-18k. Nobody cares about ODI, T20 records....in time Root will be the gold standard. Link to comment
putrevus Posted August 31, 2024 Share Posted August 31, 2024 Kohli does not need 10k test runs to be known as best of this generation.Kohli's legacy is set, he does not need any more runs in any format. Kohli is/will be gold standard of this era . Link to comment
