Former England cricketer Samit Patel feels that it would be unbelievable if Joe Root manages to break Sachin Tendulkar's long-standing record for the most runs in Test cricket.
"If he can do it, that would be an unbelievable effort. Sachin is probably my hero and idol growing up, and if someone does that, it would be unbelievable," he said on the sidelines of the ongoing World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2026.
