Joe Root of England during the third day (photo Gareth Coppley/Getty Images) Joe Root talks to toi about the changing nature of the test Batsmanship, the need is constantly evolving and why it is important to be authentic and realistic.The cricket has changed so much from the beginning. What is needed to stay on top for so long?It was certainly not easy. I’ll tell you free! One thing that served me well is never to be happy. The more I play, the more information is for other teams that they could work with in terms of ways of release or weakness. You have to find ways to fight it and make sure there’s no defect in your game.It is about constant search for development, finding ways to evaluate good balls, be able to turn a blow from good supplies, so it is difficult for individual pitch to build pressure. This gave me the opportunity to remain relatively consistent, but also realistic about good and bad times. There will be a period when it’s hard. The point is how you react and how quickly you can turn things with hard work and honest reflection.A word about the recently surrendered Kohli? He had problems outside the foot in Australia. Is it more difficult to iron chinks, how does one age?Each player is different. If you are in the test series of five matches and in your game is something that does not fit well with you, it can be difficult. You don’t have time to go and get two weeks off to work on that thing. There is no respiratory space if you do not make a drastic change in the test. But then you play against some very high quality players under your own conditions. And let’s not forget, many people will still mention how you got out!

What is most important for success in a test cricket?
Kohli still got 100 in the first test (in Perth) that India won. It’s all about what you can do to face things back in your favor-and it’s a change in the guide or launching from your fold or in your fold, or try to create a width by staying on the ball side than to make you make technical changes in this short span.Whenever you change, there could be massive professionals and mild disadvantages. You have to work out if it is worth it every time. So there is a lot to deal with and manage, but with experience and more understanding of your own game, it should be easier.Is it fair to say that the captain did not fit well with you? What is the advice you would give to younger captains, such as SHUBMAN GILL on any potential pitfalls you should avoid?I wouldn’t say it didn’t sit with me. In terms of results, I fought to the back end, but we had our own challenges with a lot of games we played in Covid and were away from the families. But with that it was a new beginning for this team and a new coach, a new captain, a new way to look at the testing.One thing I would say I have been a captain for a long time is to ensure that you always stay real to what you think is the right way to go about things. Once you try to play someone else’s cricket, it will be difficult to be authentic and bring the best version of yourself.You do not necessarily fit into an attack of a “basball” pattern, Yet are you doing under the coach McCullum and Captain Stokes (1527 running at 58.73)?It is about managing your own game, trying to play for the highest reward with the lowest possible risk, as long as possible. This is clearly the art of launching. Maybe a slightly different role helped in the team. Having someone as a “Baz” (McCullum) comes to our environment and have a slightly different way of looking at the game, opened my mind to see the situations differently.Are the qualities such as patience, stubbornness, willingness to whip time – what we have known today as a basic part of the test bats – today the lack?No. I just think that the younger crop looks at things differently. Cricket across formats always evolves. Players always try to find different ways to stay in front of trends, be it the ways of release as a dough, or if you are in some way mixing as many options and skills as possible.In the tests, teams now have more ways of operation, even in bowling attacks. There are more armed, more diverse spinners. The boys use the fold much more than they might have done 20 years ago. There are many fine changes that the T20s introduced has provided a test cricket.Now, even if the game is playing a little faster, the teams are trying to score a little faster. There are passages of games that you have to handle differently.This means that even if you score quickly, you must still be able to absorb pressure. So there is definitely an element of stubbornness, this willingness to be hard, survive the other side. But the way it looks and the way you have to use this stubbornness is slightly different from how it was 20 years ago.Do you think larger teams have a greater responsibility to make the test format exciting and create a permanentMemories for fans?Tests are the highlight of sport. Wherever you are, you face different challenges. On the subcontinent, the ball could rotate, there is another reflection. The ball itself is different. There is a heat that may face. When you come here, it can be quite cold, it can swing around, it can be green and a pinch everywhere. The Duke ball does different things. You go to Australia, again it is very different. The same with South Africa.The fact is that you have to handle so many different factors, in five days and the goal can change drastically. All the little complexities of the game cause it to stand above others in my eyes. The more we can celebrate and protect it and show it to the rest of the world, the better.How much time is required to assess whether a new player for tests is cut?The answer is a very difficult question. Each has a different rate of development. Look at someone like Harry Brook – came directly to the team, duck into the water. Incredible. There are other players who last a little longer, but that doesn’t mean they won’t be successful. Check out Michael Hussey, did not play a test cricket until he was at the age of 20, at the beginning of the 30th year.It’s not easy. It is possible that someone like Yashasvi Jaiswal is coming and has an amazing series, as he did against Western India, and goes to Australia and a hundred hundred. Everybody’s journey is unique, but some people just last a little longer.Being a selector is not something I look forward to on the line! I can imagine that in India, with a lot of talent and many players from which you can choose, it would be very difficult to correct. This must be a real challenge.(Watch India Tour after England from 15:30, June 20, live on Sony Sports Ten 1 and Sony Sports 10 5 channels)
