"I personally think that if you want to keep getting the ball changed then each team gets three challenges every 80 overs and that's it"

Root has picked up 211 catches in 156 Tests, the highest ever for a non-wicketkeeper in Test cricket. The former Indian skipper held the record for most catches by a non-wicketkeeper (210) until he was surpassed by Joe Root.

Joe Root has followed his latest century with a record-setting catch and Jofra Archer has made a wicket-taking return as England enjoyed the better of Day 2 of the third test against India at Lord’s.

It was class, wasn't it? Just the genuine joy of seeing him back playing Test cricket. Taking that wicket, making things happen," said Root.

England batter Joe Root has proposed a rule for ball changes during a match as he took a sly dig at Team India amid the Dukes ball controversy. Meanwhile, Sunil Gavaskar has criticised the poor quality of the balls.

India's Jasprit Bumrah dismissed Ben Stokes, Joe Root and Chris Woakes in the first half an hour of Day 2 of the third Test to run through England.

Joe Root indirectly takes a dig Indian skipper Shubman Gill’s reaction to the Dukes ball issue, urging players to adapt instead of making a fuss.

Root anchored the innings with a composed 104 off 199 balls -- his 37th Test century -- while No 9 Brydon Carse (56) and keeper-batter Jamie Smith (51) staged a crucial lower-order fightback as the last three England partnership was worth 84 runs.
