'India have all bases covered': Joe Root ahead of first Test at Leeds
The Daily Guardian
|June 19, 2025
As star England batter Joe Root gears up for an action-packed year of Test cricket featuring home series against India and an away Ashes series against Australia, the veteran said that the opportunities in front of the group are "epic" and added that their current opponents India have "all bases covered."
Root's first major test challenge this year would be the five-test series against India, starting on Friday in Leeds. But after that, from late November onwards, he will be featured in the away Ashes in Australia, aiming to win their first away series against arch-rivals since 2010-11. During these two series, Root, placed fifth among the highest run-getters in Tests with 13,006 runs, will continue to chase Sachin Tendulkar's all-time tally of 15,921 runs.
Speaking to Sky Sports ahead of the first Test, Root said, "You can only be excited. These are the series you play for. The opportunities in front of us are epic."
