The former England skipper Joe Root recorded his 26th Test century, along the way completing 10,000 runs in Test cricket. He became the 14th batter overall and only the 2nd Englishman after Sir Alastair Cook to reach this milestone. Root also became the joint-youngest batter to achieve this feat as he surpassed greats like Sachin Tendulkar, Jacques Kallis, and Ricky Ponting to this feat.
