Huge praise coming for Babar Azam from Joe Root. England’s top order batter Joe Root Wednesday deemed him as one of the best players around the world “without a doubt”.
“He’s done it across formats for a number of years now. His record across the world in Test cricket has been pretty consistent. He’s one of those players whom you sit and watch as he bats. He’s going to go from strength to strength,” Root said.
Joe Root added that England’s arrival in Pakistan for the three-match series is a huge moment for Test cricket and suggested that his team would continue playing the way it has been playing for the last few months.
The 31-year-old Root has played 124 Tests and 158 ODIs along with 32 T20Is and has amassed over 17,600 runs in international cricket.
