Only 922? Pathetic. 923 would be impressive

His next 4 Tests are against Sri Lanka at The Oval followed by 3 in Pakistan......prepare to be impressed!!

Last time root toured PAK he had to bat left handed to make any runs. Could be disappointing.

Now the question is, could he, by any chance, surpass Steve Smith's rating of 947. That'd be cool.
Coronis
International Coach
Doubtful.
sayon basak
International Vice-Captain
Makes sense, I would guess his rating will drop in the very next match.
GIMH
Norwood's on Fire
What would it take to get him there? I’m not too clued up on how these ratings work

Are the points determined by any specific formula? Would any kind hearted person explain how the ranking system comes up with an exact value?
Victor Ian
International Coach
Isn't it a four year sample with some weighting crap. But he just needs to keep beating what drops off and is weighted lower. I think he's a chance. If not Smith, then Ponting is up for grabs.

Factors such as:
Look at runs scored by a batsman.
Combined rating of opposition bowlers.
Level of run scoring. If your team scores 650, your 80 is worth less than if your team scores 150 all out.
More points if Root gets a not out.
More points if England wins.
Coronis
International Coach
Yeah I’m not sure of the exact formula, I don’t think its actually stated anywhere.
Just from an article on the web, which sources from the icc..
Batsmen Ranking is decided on the basis of;
1. Out or Not Out (Bonus points are given to Not out players)
2. Ratings of the opposing bowling attack; the higher the combined ratings of the bowling attack, in proportion more value is given to the batsman’s innings.
3. Runs scored i.e., more runs means more bonus points. A century in the second innings will get more credit than in the first inning.
4. At which juncture; runs are scored. If player score runs when his team was in crisis, then player gets more rating points.
5. The level of run-scoring in the match. If both teams score 500 in innings, then the computer rate it as a high scoring match, so 100 runs by a player in this innings worth lesser to a low scoring match in which both team score just 150 runs.
6. If a player has scored more runs in a match and his team wins then he gets bonus points. But bonus points will be more if the victory is against a strong team.
Bowlers Ranking is decided on the basis of;
1. Wickets taken and runs conceded
2. Ratings of the batsmen dismissed. At present Kohli is on the number one ranking holder in the Test, so his wicket will give more rating points to bowlers than Jaspreet Bumrah's wicket.
3. If in a one-day match, the Australia team has scored 350 runs and Bhuvneshwar Kumar took three wickets for 50 runs (3-50) and in another match Australia's team scored 180 runs and Hardik Pandya took 3-50. So Bhuvneshwar Kumar will get more rating points because he has conceded 50 runs in a high scoring match and pandya spent 50 runs in the match of just 180 runs.
4. Heavy workload; bowlers who bowl a large number of overs in the match get more credit, even if he/she take no wickets.
Idk if #3 also applies to tests.

He will have to score heavily vs higher ranked bowlers to really go close to Smith.

I'm not sure if the ratings work linearly or logarithmicly. His rating before the match was 881, so that's a 41 point leap. Could he expect the same increase in rating if he performs the same way against the same bowlers? (As the point is calculated out of1000, I don't think it works linearly)

No it's definitely not linear. The higher the rating the more extreme a performance needs to be to move the needle

Next game it'll probably only go up by like 10-15 points, if he repeated the same performance.
Sometimes even after a relatively quiet match or two, your rating doesn't change much because a couple of old Tests in which you may have failed are getting dropped off/losing weight. This balances things out with your current failure. So it's really complicated and definitely non-linear.
