Root, who is based mostly in Dore and grew up actively playing cricket at nearby Sheffield Collegiate CC, turned England’s top intercontinental run-scorer on day one, eclipsing Sir Alastair Cook’s history of 15,737.

The Check skipper introduced up the milestone in commonly-stylish fashion, with a square drive for four, and he was the standout participant on an otherwise disastrous day, top rated scoring with a stylish 64 in England’s 1st innings rating of 183 all out. Jonny Bairstow, Root’s Yorkshire teammate, was the upcoming best scorer with 29.
