England's Joe Root Still Has Twenty20 World Cup Vision
Joe Root still has ambitions to break into England's powerful batting line-up for the Twenty20 World Cup, with the Test captain insisting the controversial rest-and-rotation policy was "being put behind us".
Root last played a Twenty20 international in 2019 and, in his absence, England have climbed to the top of the T20 world rankings. But although England are blessed with several big hitters, Root's more traditional methods of run-scoring could prove effective on the slow and low pitches expected at the T20 World Cup later this year.
