England vice-captain Ollie Pope won’t be surprised if Joe Root overtakes Sachin Tendulkar to become the all-time leading run getter in Tests.
Tendulkar has 15,921 runs, while Root, 34, stands at 13,409 after his 150 in the fourth Test. “I’m sure if his body allows... he’ll obviously be driven to make it to No. 1. The excitement he still has to play Test cricket, he’s always got the biggest smile on his face. The hunger he has for it, I wouldn’t be surprised if he can chase him down,” said Pope.
