*Official* West Indies Tour of England, JULY 9th to 25th, 2024-- 3 TEST MATCHES

[BazBall21]

Pretty ambitious drive from Woakes.

 

[PlayerComparisons]

Root should start reverse scooping after his hundred

 

[BazBall21]

Get in. I called this one too.

 

[CartyDurham]

Beautiful cover drive to bring up another ton

well played Root

103 off 158. 7 x 4s

 

[CartyDurham]

I don't think it's a bad thing but tickets are usually free when they think no-one will turn up. People would be crazy nor to turn up tomorrow,

Fair comment. I’m surprised at the empty seats today

 

[PlayerComparisons]

Well played!

 

[GIMH]

It would be unreasonable to ask @Howe_zat for a Rootometer while he’s at the game so let’s all just picture one

God I love him. Root that is. Howe is okay too

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Rooooooot

 

[GIMH]

Rooooooot

Quiet you

 

[King Kane]

The Yorkshiremen stepping up to save England again.

Boycott would be tickled pink right now.

 

[PlayerComparisons]

Rooooooot

Almost as good as Woakes’s innings

 

[CartyDurham]

 

[CartyDurham]

And we are off

scoop over the slips just

350 lead

 

[CartyDurham]

Falling over but timed to perfection

 

[King Kane]

Root bringing out the reverse ramp again.

Boycott wouldn't have enjoyed that daft shot.

I thought that was his 32nd???

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Root should start reverse scooping after his hundred

Good shout

 

[GIMH]

I thought that was his 32nd???

It was.

 

[CartyDurham]

I thought that was his 32nd???

Not according to those stats.

Cricinfo has him at 31

 

[Chin Music]

Delighted to see another Root ton and can’t wait for him to go past Cook in terms of England test tons. Getting past 350 lead was the minimum for me.
