Jul 30, 2025
The last Test at Manchester's Old Trafford was one to remember for Root, the batter. Not only did he put his team in a commanding position with a 248-ball 150, consisting of 14 fours, but he also surpassed legends like Rahul Dravid, Jacques Kallis and Ricky Ponting to become the second-highest Test run-getter, with Sachin still at the top with 15,921 runs in 200 Tests with 51 centuries.
