    Joe Root moved to 16th in the all-time list having gone past Graham Gooch. Starting to thin out above him now with just 2 players in the 9,000's - these are the South African's Graeme Smith (9265) and Hashim Amla (9282)

    Tests - 107
    Innings - 197 (not out 15)
    Runs - 9100
    Average - 50.00
    High Score - 254
    Hundreds - 22
    50's - 50
    Catches - 139
    Wickets - 38 at an average of 45
    Best Bowling - 5-8

    He also has 7,002 runs in white ball International cricket (making him the highest England run scorer across all formats)

    Joe Root has 1398 runs so far in 2021. The most scored in a year was the 1788 scored by Mohammad Youssef in 2006.
    Root has 6 tests in the rest of the year to score 391 runs

    Joe Root needs another 97 runs when his innings resumes tonight to break the calendar year record.
    It's a big task - made harder by the fact that he will need someone to stay with him at the other end (not much hope on that front!)

    No quick fixes for this - emphasis has been on white ball cricket to the detriment of red ball

    I would change the coach.

    We need one format of either the Hundred or 20-20 so that county championship games are played at the right time of year
