Joe Root is about 40 shy of 8000 Test runs.
None of the 10 Englishman with 7500+ have a better average than him and the others have all played more Tests. He's only just 30 and is also England's ODI 🐐.
It's a crazy world, but I reckon he's massively under-appreciated.

Basically, when Joe Root fails twice – which he will every now and then! – England don't have a hope. Edgbaston 2021, Grenada 2022, Lord's 2022.
