Twitter reacts after Joe Root puts up yet another batting masterclass against India
England’s top three excelled for the first time in the ongoing series, registering a fifty each on Day 2 of the third Test against India at Headingley. However, it was the imperious Joe Root who stole the show yet again, reaching his 23rd Test century, a staggering sixth in 2021.
