The all-rounder bowled a bouncer which hit the top of Root&#39;s helmet.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>However, looking at Root&#39;s reaction, it didn&#39;t affect him much and he continued to bat and was the last man to get out of the nets.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Ben Stokes hits Joe Root on the head in the Adelaide nets.
