Both Dinesh Karthik and Stuart Broad have admitted that Root is a great player. Karthik even said that –
“The way you are playing the route, I think Sachin’s 51 Test centuries are not far away.”

Root is just 34 years old and is in excellent form even after 13 -year -old international career. If he remains in such fit and form, then perhaps he can also reach the record of Sachin, which no one could ever touch.
