Probably not, if he had scored a 100 in last game, he probably wouldn't have been as motivated & desperate to score this time around.
The fact that he's scoring.. almost consecutive 60s 70s 80s is because there is a burning desire in him at the moment to make a 100.
(He's not slacking off and getting out cheaply at all).

I haven't seen it yet, but judging from the reaction here and cricinfo's commentary on it;
54.3
Jadeja to Root, OUT, big appeal from Jadeja. Kohli thinks and thinks and reviews. So much doubt in the review decision. Flat and wide from Jadeja, Root gets low and sweeps. Is there bat on ball? Or bat on ground? One very discernible spike on UltraEdge. Looked like the spike was at a time when the bat was in the air, which is why the third umpire has changed the decision. The difference in time between the bat hitting the ground and the ball passing the bat was so less that there could have been a slight time lag. Or it was just bat on ground and then bat on ball. But there was just one spike on Ultra Edge. So it was either bat on ground or on ball. Root is not happy at all. There was bat on ground too. A successful review from India. That's interesting. It was also so thin that Root may not have felt the edge.

He a bit later on in the commentary clarified.. that it was out.

And here's a YouTube video of Jadeja's wickets, including the one of Root.

Thanks mate. Honestly guys, after seeing that, I'm struggling to see what the fuss is about tbh, that's consistent with other DRS interpretations I've seen in the last year or so, a snicko line comes up right as it's passing the bat and it's clearly not the bat hitting the ground and there was no clear daylight between bat and ball. Seemed fair enough to overturn for me assuming we're actually utilizing the technology. KW got given out in similar circumstances recently from a snicko line, but his was thinner than that, and only 1 spike. IIRC.
What am I missing?

Pure bias and just "imagining" things, including the cricinfo commentator (initially).
I guess they wanted Root to score a 100, more than Root himself, because he has come out & more or less accepted the decision by Technology (in his interview). Whereas these other guys are still imagining things.
It's funny actually lol.

Yeah well I wanted Rooty to ton up too, but that looked out to me.

When one 'clings' to a desire and the desire is not fulfilled, it usually leads to a negative reaction. Anger, frustration come up.. And if at that point the Mind can see an excuse, it quickly grabs onto it to justify the unfavourable outcome..
It all depends on the strength of the desire.. i.e. how badly you wanted something or were expecting something..

He's bodily sore. (also mentally I suppose)

Soreness by all reports, which I think means rested.
Perhaps after his pretty unflattering comments about Kohli effectively implying he's a hometrack bully coupled with the fact it's tough conditions for his bowling (i'm not whether he's sees the irony himself) & of course it's a dead rubber were all factors.
Bradman had 28, I think Gavaskar is second with 20, and Hayden third with 17.

Whatever it takes!!!
EDIT: Nvm. Been discussed to death.
Gotta say this pitch looks more and more like Rajkot. Maybe coz of the limited time to prepare they went for the black soil track than the red soil one like Akash Chopra is saying but man I would rather see more red soil tracks in India, even at the risk of every fan outside India waaaahing about it being a bunsen or a turner. They produce much better cricket than these tracks like Rajkot or Chennai does.
