South African Jacques Kallis: Star batter Joe Root went past India legend Sachin Tendulkar as the leading run-scorer in the fourth innings of Test cricket in England's eight-wicket win over New Zealand in the first Test at Hagley Oval.
Root crossed Tendulkar’s mark of 1625 runs in the fourth innings during his brisk 22 which helped England claim a 1-0 lead in the series. He currently stands at 1630 runs scored in fourth innings of Test matches.
Last month, Root, who has 12777 runs, has passed Alastair Cook to become the leading run-getter for England during first Test against Pakistan.
