Root must be the best batsman in the world at the moment in every format.
pasty
A different kind of pasty
Said it before and I'll say it again. I normally hate watching England bat, but Root is the one exception to that rule.
10 overs to go... 236-4

Him, Butler and Stokes are really entertaining batsmen. It feels like England have finally realised what one day cricket is all about, I think we should be grateful to NZ for showing us the way last summer.
He is certainly up there with Steve Smith and Kane Williamson.
First of the final ten, from Rabada, goes for 13

Stokes giving it some stick!

Still got Ali, Katie and Willey who can **** it about. 330?
Stokes SMASHING Wiese... FOUR and SIX
and then Root is run out... drove it into the stumps at the bowlers end... Stokes and Root end up waving and chatting in the middle about who should be going where or not
269-5 (43 overs)

That's taken the steam out of the England charge... just 5 from part-timer Behardien and 3 from Wiese...

Can two batsmen get out in the same play? Roots run out saw both him and Stokes stuck in the middle. If the Saffers had extraordinary ball throwing speed and ability could they stump both of them?
