Former England Skipper Joe Root Enjoying Cricket After Leaving Captaincy
Former England captain Joe Root has said he is "thoroughly enjoying" England Test cricket's resurgence following two-years of dismal performance, adding he hoped the side could go from "strength to strength" from here on.
Under Root, the England Test suffered several series losses with the worst being the 4-0 hammering in the Ashes Down Under and the 1-0 series loss against the West Indies. Following criticism of his captaincy, Root stepped down to focus on his batting and since then the England side under new skipper Ben Stokes and head coach Brendon McCullum has won six of the seven Test they have played -- a first after 2004.
