It’s quite funny that Jarrod’s model predicts Root to get there in the exact same number of tests. It’s all about longevity, fitness, and hunger. And these are factors that no one can quantify. Sachin had heaps of injuries in his mid 30’s, which coincided with the dip in his form.

All professional players have one job - yet weirdly…none of the others are close. And btw, “20 tests per year”? In 2023 England played 11. In 2022 they played 8.
@@Luis_Baruch The point is that if any other of the fab 4 dropped the white ball formats and solely focused on test cricket they would be A LOT better than they are currently. He's 3rd in total Test match averages and hasn't had the peak of a Steve Smith yet. Hes not better than Smith or Kohli as an all time great.
Yes, even great players have a dip after a certain age, GOATs like Sachin, Ponting had 57+ avg at a time but ended somewhere around 54 and 52 respectively. Root is approaching that age. Smith and Kohli struggled too. One bad Ashes followed by India series, just like poor WC2023 he had and he might retire. Unlike other great batsman, even during his absolute peak Root hardly managed to get his career avg over 50
Joe root has been a one man army and lone warrior for most of his career - if he had some class of players around him like the other greats I can bet his average would be higher. Stokes (the only other class player) has been very average since Covid and his mental health.
Root scored 21 out of his 34 centuries at home (in similar number of innings 137 v 130). He will rely on continuing the heavy scoring at home if he wants to chase down Tendulkar. Considering that 3 of the next 5 home seasons will be against India and Australia, it may not be as easy to keep knocking up the big scores.
@@kwl189 Root Avgs 45 in India with 3 100s in 15 matches.... with age his reflexes to play spin has gone down.... Lets see how he fares in upcoming Pak series
@@AnuragSingh-pt6hl correct. I think Root is probably right up there is terms of average for overseas batsmen in India. Let’s see how he goes because these players are insanely professional and fit with sports medicine so his prime fitness and reflexes and eye sight could be extended. Eye sight declined a lot with Dhoni and Tendulkar by the end and hurt their scoring a lot.
This is the most realistic analysis of the whole situation. 3.5k test runs are lot of runs. And once the body start behaving funny, it gets tougher. Even great Dravid with his wall like technique struggled fair bit at the end of his career.
Root has said he wants to play at the 2027 World Cup. He has talked about playing for as long as possible. He doesn't play many T20 leagues and is often rest for ODIs. So he has a very good chance to break it.
It's not common for SENA players to continue playing after their mid-30s. Those who do love playing cricket too much and/or play it occasionally like Anderson. But I want Root to break this record, honestly. Send him to bat against West Indies or something.
2020 - 2024 Joe Root is an example of what any of the fab 4 players could achieve if they quit the other formats of cricket and spam 15 test matches a year lol. He's still behind Kohli and Smith as an all time great and is probably only ahead of Williamson.
Ponting Dipped, Tendulkar Dipped, what about those that didn't dip? Jacques Kallis? Kumar Sangakkara? They both retired on Top of their forms. Ponting and Tendulkar played way past what's considered the retirement age. Root probably won't even have to play till he's 40. And he probably can play till he's 40 if he enjoys the game. People kept talking about how Anderson has barely got a year left. And that continued for half a decade. Not saying that Root is a shoe-in to break any of those records, but he's well placed to do it when no one even thought it was possible.
Sachin was just born to bat. He too had other business interests but he outsourced them better. That's the advantage of the Indian economy where you can make others take care of your business. Root may have to look after his own businesses looking at the current state of British economy 😂. Let's wait till 2025 Ashes in Australia. That could be the time when it all crumbles for Joe.
I’m certain there are people organisations who look after the business interests of sports people whilst they are off playing. When he retires he may take a more active role in them, but for now he is a professional sportsman.
Root needs to play another 60-70 test to break Sachin Tendulkar test century record...he is already 34...needs to play all test for another 5 - 6 yrs... fitness... form... injury will now play important role.
Not test but inngs should matter. Sachin is still the fastest to reach 10,000 runs along with Lara in 195 inngs, Smith has 195 inngs now with 9685 runs
There are only 2-3 teams who have a good bowling line up in the Test format. Root has all the advantages if he doesn't go past the record he should be disappointed
Sachin is considered great because of his ability to hit wicket taking balls in multiple ways. Runs, Centuries, number of matches played, or awards are secondary. anyone can make more runs, century et all than Sachin but he is considered genius early one from start because of his unmatched abilities on all surfaces in all conditions. Joe is a great batsman but not near Sachin in skill or ability to handle expectations.
Joe Root will become the first and only player to make 20,000 Test Runs - this discussion is "for the birds." I'll revisit this comment in 12 months, at which time he'll be at almost 14,000.
Hes good but clearly behind Smith in tests or Kohli across all formats. Also all this talk about being England's greatest need to be put on hold until he scores big in Australia. Until then he's still behind KP
Not really, he is better than KP. He has great record in SA, NZ, SL, IND and WI. He still averages 36 in Australia, and I am sure in the remaining Ashes tests, he will put that record straight and will score runs in Australia as well.
@@arnabiitmphy If he does it will be against an aging attack not the peak Aussie attack KP did it against in 06. Either way 100 is needed to at least tick that box, but really he needs to win down under to be considered England's greatest of this century

What's your if root is avg I don't think u have seen him play. Against India 700+ runs 4 centuries. 2 dady hundreds in Sri Lanka. Highest runs in the recent ashes. Highest runs in India in india series in 2021. 35 hundreds is no avg guy bro. He is definitely in top 7 or 8 players of all time already.
Also u have to remember most of his test career root was one man army if he had a strong supporting cast his avg would be more then 55 for sure. He has the 45+ avg against almost all countries. Even against aus 40+. Calling him avg is ignorance 😂. Maybe he isnt Tendulkar's level but saying he isn't no where near is very wrong. He will be ending somewhere in the top 5.

No chance in hell. YEAR OF HORSE to be a leader in anything? THEY DONT WANT ANY ATTENTION. I mean they like attention but when they want. he will retire at 14000 runs
The thing about Tendulkar is he was terribly out of form in his last 25 tests, he didn't score a single hundred between 175 and 200 tests, while averaging in the mid twenties. His overall test average, which was nearly 57 after 175 tests, shrunk to 53 after 200 tests. It was clear that Tendulkar just kept playing for the record 200 tests, and had it been any other player from any other country he would have been dropped, but not Tendulkar because it was India and he was treated as a god in India and was "undropable". Not every batter will be so out of form in the last several tests. The point that I am trying to make here is if Joe Root plays even 70% of what he is playing right now, and plays for another 5 years, he will break the number of test runs of Tendulkar, and also come very close to breaking the highest test century record as well. I mean the guy scored 17 test hundreds and around 4500 runs in the last 3.5 years!
