TFW Daily - Root sets course for Tendulkar – England India 4th Test, Old Trafford Day 3
Episode Notes
England India Daily, 4th Test, Old Trafford Day 3: Joe Root moved into second spot on the list of all-time Test run-makers on a day where India’s bowlers toiled. What has changed in England’s batting mindset this series? And how do you explain the diminishing returns of Jasprit Bumrah against the top-order? The day belongs to Root, with his 150 taking him past Jacques Kallis and Ricky Ponting. Can he do the impossible and overtake Sachin Tendulkar? Daniel Norcross and Ben Jones are your hosts from Manchester.
