Ponting Predicts Root To Break Sachin Tendulkar's All-time Test Record
ICC World Test Championship: Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting feels that England batter Joe Root will surpass legendary Sachin Tendulkar's all-time record of most runs in Test cricket in the coming years.
The former England captain recently completed 12,000 Test runs during the three-match home Test series against West Indies. In 143 Tests, Root has accumulated 12,027 runs at an average of 50.11 including 32 centuries and 63 half-centuries. He is currently seventh on the list of highest run-getters in Test cricket.
The right-handed batter is 1,351 runs short of Ponting's total of 13,378 runs and nearly 4,000 runs behind Tendulkar's record of 15,921 runs. He can close this gap further during his team’s ICC World Test Championship series against Sri Lanka, which begins later this month. Read More...
