Many veterans also criticized him for this shot. Now his teammate Ben Duckett has come out in defense of Joe Root and said that when this shot was working, people were not criticizing. Let us tell you that Joe Root was the first player to be out on the third day. He played a reverse scoop against Jasprit Bumrah, but failed and Yashasvi Jaiswal took a brilliant catch. As soon as he was out, the fall of wickets started and the England team, which had scored 224 runs after losing 2 wickets, was all out for 319 runs. In this way India got a lead of 126 runs. After the end of the day’s play, Ben Duckett described Joe Root’s dismissal as ordinary and said that it was just a routine way of getting out. It is not right to analyze this. He said that Joe Root is a freak and he does things that many of us cannot do. In my view, that is the same as getting out after playing an out drive. He plays the reverse scoop very well and I’m sure not many people criticized it when it worked in the summer. Scored 70 runs at an average of 14 in five innings. Let us tell you that this series has not been anything special for Joe Root with the bat so far. He has not scored a single half-century in the series yet.

We were attacking, but it was of no use.
