1st Test: Root Sets Records; Brook Rides His Luck As England Reach 492/3 Against Pakistan
Shaheen Shah Afridi: Joe Root and Harry Brook struck unbeaten centuries and shared a 243-run partnership for the fifth wicket on a record-breaking day as England came up with a strong response to reach 492/3 against Pakistan at stumps on the third day of the opening Test at the Multan Stadium here on Wednesday.
Root, who had reached 32 at the end of the second day, came up with another majestic effort to continue his superb form from the Lord's Test against Sri Lanka in which he struck a hundred in both innings, hitting 143 and 103. He was unbeaten at 176 as he helped England come up with a solid response to Pakistan's massive first-innings score of 556. Bosch was batting on 141, a blazing effort coming off 173 deliveries, hitting 12 boundaries and one six.
While scoring his third century in three Tests, Root made history as he became the highest scorer for England, breaking the record held by Alistair Cook, going past his score of 12,472 runs that has stood as the record for England since 2018.
