England National Selector Reveals Why Root Got Test Captaincy Over Harry Brook
Joe Root: England national selector Marcus North explained the committee's thinking behind handing the Test captaincy back to former skipper Joe Root rather than promoting white-ball captain Harry Brook, following Ben Stokes' exit from international cricket.
The 35-year-old Joe Root had led England earlier and had a moderately successful first stint. Brook, 27, is currently leading the national ODI and T20I teams.
But, according to media reports, the reason the selectors opted for Root was that they did not want to burden Brook with the pressure of all-format captaincy.
