Root happy with Ashes prep at IPL

England’s former captain has been selected just three times for Rajasthan Royals and batted just once, scoring only 10 runs from 15 balls.

It led to suggestions he might have better prepared for the five-Test series against Australia by playing Championship cricket in English conditions rather than warming the bench, but he insisted the IPL had proved the better preparation.

“I love playing for Yorkshire and I love the County Championship,” Root (right, playing for the Royals) told ESPNcricInfo. “It’s the bedrock of our game back in the UK and it’s so influential in developing players.
