'I Have High Expectations Of Myself': Root Have No Regrets Over His Choice Of Shot Selection
Root was heavily criticised for getting out to a reverse scoop on the third day of the Rajkot Test. His dismissals triggered a collapse for England, who went from 207-2 to 319 all out, conceding a 126-run lead to India in a match they'd ultimately lose by 434 runs.
The 33-year-old, known for his classical approach to batting, has faced heavy scrutiny after scoring just 77 runs in six innings. Root, however, returned to form with his 31st Test hundred in the fourth Test in Ranchi but it failed to prevent England from a third-straight loss as they went down by five wickets in a nerve-wracking finish on the fourth day.
