Root is still the most prized wicket - Boland
Birmingham Mail
|November 18, 2025
AUSTRALIA'S Scott Boland admits Joe Root remains the most prized wicket in England's Ashes lineup, regardless of his ongoing search for a first century Down Under.
Despite boasting more than 13,000 Test runs - more than any other active cricketer and second only to India’s Sachin Tendulkar on the all-time list - Perth's West Australian newspaper welcomed Root's arrival in the country earlier this month with a front page splash dubbing him “Average Joe".
Such jibes are built around the fact that he has yet to reach three figures in 14 matches in the country but, with the series opener just four days away, Boland made it clear there is nothing but respect for Root in the home dressing room.
