Podcast appearances and mentions of Joe Root

England India Daily, 5th Test, The Oval, Day 4: So we go to Day 25 of the series, with 35 runs or 3 wickets to decide the fate of the series. Unless Chris Woakes can bat? For most of Day 4 it looked like another England miracle was panning out, thanks largely to Harry Brook and Joe Root, as Mohammed Siraj and company toiled. But with wickets falling near the end, India's bowlers will get one last chance on morning five. Cameron Ponsonby joins Daniel Norcross from The Oval.

In this episode of the show, Binksy, Jamie and Stu look back at the fourth Test between England and India, plus New Zealand's victory in the T20 Tri-Series final against South Africa. We also look ahead to the 5th Test in the UK and the Black Caps v Zimbabwe series. We start the show by talking about India's fantastic fightback on days 4 and 5 of the Test at Old Trafford, which saw the series remain at 2-1 with one match to play. There were hundreds for Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja, but also some controversy surrounding the conclusion of the day's play. Ben Stokes wasn't happy then, but he'd done plenty to earn his player of the match award, taking a 5-wicket bag and scoring 100 across the course of the Test. Joe Root was equally impressive, and Rishabh Pant's bravery stood out for the visitors. We round out the India v England conversation with a discussion about potential and probable changes the 5th and final Test. To finish the show, Stu chimes in to highlight the Black Caps' unbeaten run to some T20 silverware in Zimbabwe, which culminated in a dramatic final against South Africa. With 7 runs needed from 6 balls, Matt Henry stepped up and, with the help of two fantastic catches in the outfield, closed out the victory for New Zealand. In addition, we look ahead to the upcoming Test series against Zimbabwe. We'll be back in your feed next week to recap the England v India and NZ v Zimbabwe Tests.

What has changed in England's batting mindset this series? And how do you explain the diminishing returns of Jasprit Bumrah against the top-order?

Jonathan Agnew is joined by Michael Vaughan and Sir Alastair Cook on the day that Joe Root moves to second on the lost of Test run scorers. It was also his 38th Test century. We hear from his teammate Ollie Pope who tells us if he thinks Root can make it to top spot and the team also discuss where it may have gone wrong for India's bowlers.

England take inexorable control of the fourth Test at Old Trafford thanks primarily to Joe Root's faultless 38th Test hundred. In the course of it he went past Jacques Kallis, Rahul Dravid and Ricky Ponting to become the second highest run scorer in the history of Test cricket. Only the incomparable Sachin Tendulkar has more (about 2500 more.) Simon Hughes and Deep Dasgupta assess the day and India's legendary batsman Sunil Gavaskar gives his verdict on Root's monumental achievement. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the show, Binksy and Stu look back at an epic encounter at Lord's, which saw England go 2-1 up against India. We start the show by talking about the quality of the match and the emotions of a gripping 4th innings, in which Ravindra Jadeja almost played hero with the tail but ultimately saw the legend of Ben Stokes grow even further. The conversation then bounces around from India's missed opportunities to the quality of batting on display from KL Rahul and Joe Root, the return of Jofra Archer and the ongoing discussion around slow over rates and the Dukes cricket ball. To round out the show, we look ahead to the selection questions facing both sides for the 4th Test. Will Jasprit Bumrah play? Should India make more changes? A bump in the road for Shoaib Bashir and whether England will rotate their bowling attack in what shapes to be another fascinating encounter.

In this episode of Cricket Matters, we dive into a topic that's close to every batter's heart: what actually counts as a good batting average in club cricket? We crunch the numbers, challenge the myths, and share a reality check that every aspiring player needs to hear.You'll Learn:Why averages alone don't tell the full story. We explore how focusing only on your batting average can be misleading and why it's crucial to consider 50+ scores and conversion rates for a true performance assessment.What elite player stats reveal about consistency. James breaks down test, ODI, and T20 data from cricket legends like Tendulkar, Kohli, and Joe Root to show how often even the greats “fail”—and what that means for club players.How to benchmark yourself as a club cricketer. You'll get a data-driven framework for what a “good” batting performance looks like depending on your role in the lineup, from opener to tail-ender.The mindset shift needed for performance improvement. We unpack why many club cricketers overrate themselves based on one good knock and how to take ownership of your form with honesty and data.Key Takeaways:50+ scores are more important than average alone. A high average can be inflated by not-outs or low-pressure runs. What really matters is how often you're converting starts into match-defining scores.Even the greatest cricketers get out a lot. Legends like Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting scored 50+ runs in only about 35% of innings. That means failing 65% of the time is still elite performance.Joe Root and Virat Kohli are statistical outliers. Their incredible consistency, with nearly 50% of innings over 50 runs, puts them on a level unmatched even among the top 10 run-scorers of all time.Club performance must be evaluated across 10 innings. One-off big scores don't prove form. Patterns over 10 innings give a clearer picture of who's performing—and who just got lucky.Your division should reflect your performance level. If you're averaging 80 but playing low-division cricket, you're not being challenged. Conversely, low scores at high levels may mean it's time to regroup.Quotes:“In cricket, the stats don't lie—and they don't lie over time.”“Everyone remembers their 74, but forgets their 12 and 3.”“Batting average without conversion stats is only half the story.”Find James on: Instagram: @jamesbreese Twitter: @_jamesbreese To learn more about Cricket Matters and download your FREE copy of The High-Performance Handbook, please visit www.cricketmatters.com

England India Daily, 1st Test, Headingley, Review: Daniel Norcross and Ben Jones assess a wild Test match in Leeds that was… actually quite predictable when you break it down day by day. Is this the end of batting first in England? Daniel seems to think so. Joe Root continues to be unnervingly nerveless in run chases. Looking to Edgbaston, how will the bowling lineups look? Will Akash Deep or Arshdeep Singh be called in to bolster the pace attack? Will we see Atkinson return for England or, whisper it, Jofra Archer? For India in general, will Shubman find his voice in the field, and will his troops be able to up their intensity in the field?

Engeland is uit die Kampioenetrofee nadat hulle in Lahore, Pakistan, met agt lopies teen Afghanistan verloor het. Die aanvangskolwer Ibrahim Zadran het met 177 van 146 balle sy sesde eendag-honderdtal aangeteken en Afghanistan tot 325 vir sewe gebring. In antwoord is Engeland op 317 almal uit ten spyte van Joe Root se 120 van 111 balle. Snelbouler Azmatullah Omarzai het vyf paaltjies platgetrek. Engeland se kaptein, Jos Buttler, sê hulle is teleurgesteld om uitgeskakel te word:

In this episode of the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy daily review, Jamie and Baldy cover rivalry round! England and Australia faced off overnight in the highest scoring game in Champions Trophy history, and preview the face-off between India and Pakistan tonight in the greatest rivalry in cricket. There were records galore in Lahore in a benign surface that had both sides looking like nine an over was gettable at any time. Duckett provided fireworks with the bat for 165, Joe Root did Joe Root things and for a few brief hours England held the record for the highest score in the Champions Trophy. For Australia, the not-so-household names shone brightest, and for Binksy and Jamie the solace of England-born Josh Inglis hitting the match-winning hundred will hold little comfort. England now face must-win games against Afghanistan and South Africa. For India and Pakistan the question on both Jamie and Baldy's minds was how much Pakistan could lift emotionally against India. India are almost certainly favoured in Dubai conditions, but can Pakistan pull out something special in the UAE in their home tournament? Like England, Pakistan are in win-or-bust mode for the rest of the tournament. With their backs to the wall, will this be when Pakistan's star shines brightest? For both pundits, the Indian spin strength in the middle overs will be where the game could be decided. We'll be back in your feed tomorrow and again with regular updates throughout the tournament.
