I Planned It Before I Walked Out To Bat: Root On Tribute To Thorpe After Reaching Century
Tendulkar Trophy Test: Ahead of a thrilling finish on day five of the fifth Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test, premier England batter Joe Root mentioned that his tribute to Graham Thorpe after reaching his century was something that he really deserved.
When Root reached his 39th Test century on day four’s play in England’s chase of 374 at The Oval, he was seen wearing a white headband and pointed to sky in honour of the England batting legend, who took his own life a year ago.
"It's what he deserved really. As a mentor, as a friend, that gesture wasn't just from me, it's from our dressing room and all the other dressing rooms he's affected, whether that be for Surrey or for England and beyond."
