    "editor1": "<p>Joe Root is a classical test batter. He has the perfect technique and judges the ball quickly and acts smartly to play it. This is one of the reasons why he&#39;s considered in the &#39;Fab 4&#39; and why Root has been so consistent in the last year or so.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Root scored the most runs in 2021, batting in different conditions against different well-rounded challenging attacks. It is fair to say that England&#39;s men&#39;s test batting lineup is wholly dependent on Joe Root currently.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In the first test match between West Indies vs England, the visitors once again had a disastrous start as they lost both openers - Alex Lees and Zak Crawley - within four overs.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Joe Root once again had to come early when West Indies bowlers were swinging and seaming the red Dukes ball. Root couldn&#39;t afford to get out but had to score runs as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He edged one towards the gully region for a four off Kemar Roach in the eighth over. Roach - an experienced campaigner who uses the angles well while bowling - bowled an angled-in delivery on the back of the length. Root judged the length and decided to leave.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/root66?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@root66<\/a> did not see that one coming from <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KemarAJR?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@KemarAJR<\/a>! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ICYMI?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ICYMI<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FanCode?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FanCode<\/a>&rsquo;s got your back for not just highlights but also LIVE coverage from the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WIvENG?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WIvENG<\/a> Test series.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nTune in tonight to catch Day 2, LIVE <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JTU44AriuP\">https:\/\/t.co\/JTU44AriuP<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/windiescricket?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@windiescricket<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/englandcricket?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@englandcricket<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rtwYLPl52V\">pic.twitter.com\/rtwYLPl52V<\/a><\/p>\r\n&mdash; FanCode (@FanCode) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FanCode\/status\/1501470932430626817?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 9, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote>\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\r\n\r\n<p>However, the ball slightly seamed in and hit the top of the off-stump and Joe Root departed.
