The shot selection of former England cricket team captain and veteran batsman Joe Root in the ongoing Test series against India is being criticized a lot in the cricket world. Also, he has not been able to play big innings in the series till now. He was out after scoring 29 and 2 runs in the first test match and 5 and 16 runs in the second test match.

Stuart Broad gave a big statement regarding Joe Root

Let us tell you that according to a column written in the Daily Mail, Stuart Broad said about Joe Root – There has been a lot of discussion about why this happened, but the first thing I would say regarding Joe Root’s dismissal is that No one would have been more disappointed by this than him. It is not that he will get angry with his way of thinking.

Brad further said – The fast bowler has got a lot of success playing reverse scoop. But in the Ashes, when he flicks and the ball goes for 6 runs, then we cannot clap and celebrate. He is out doing this again. Honestly, after playing with him for so long, I would rather see him get out like that than leave the ball behind.

On the other hand, if we tell you the condition of this match, then on the basis of the batsmen, the Indian team has set a strong target of 557 runs for England to win in the second innings. It will be worth watching which team wins this match. But looking at the current situation, it seems that the Indian cricket team is sitting in the driver’s seat.
