India had he best all round attacks during mid 2010s. Root made loads of runs against us.

We don't have the bowlers to intimidate and bully. We are at heart a satya, ahimsa, satyagraha, dandi march nation.

 

Root is easily intimidated and bullied by the Aussie types.

 

With us Root's  pushes, glances, edges, nudges and at most flicks are very good to score runs.

We bullied Australia in Australia. Mitchell johnson  bullied entire England team in 2014. Not just ROot. In the next tour he played okayish. We had better spin attack too.

We never bullied anyone anywhere.... only person who has done that was Siraj somewhat, sometimes when he is in the mood. Rest all are gentlemen.

 

Yeah we got them out - but that is not bullying. For example what Lillee and Marshall did was bullying.

prime virat test captaincy was on another level. saying for 60 overs they should feel like hell out there  against england and actually delivering it was peak red-ball cricket. unfortunately we're never getting that ruthless mindset back from this team

But his average will get decreased to 46 to 47 if get retired after passing sachin test records.

[The Hound]

He should, after scoring the 15922nd run and 52nd hundred

I am rooting for Root to break Tendulkar's records. Maybe that would show Tendulkar that records are meant to be broken and are meaningless.

But if he will try to break Sachin records his average may get reduced to 46 or 47. Which will break his legacy in test cricket like Virat Kohli.

What a disgraceful cricketer. He gets a dropped catch,  drs reprieve every innings and in the last inning he was also bowled off a no ball in addition.  If he had any shame left, he would never pick up a bat again in his life. Shameless pom

He should break it to show selfish Sachin that personal milestones and selfish runs at expense of team victories are meaningless.

 

He would have not only broken the record but would have also scored runs in more test wins than Sachin
