England cricketer Joe Root is backing his team’s application of the valuable insights they gained during the 2019 experience as they aim to retain their ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup championship next month in India. Root was part of the victorious England side that lifted their inaugural World Cup trophy at home four years ago, beating New Zealand in a thrilling final at Lord’s.
The memories of a thrilling Super Over clash in the World Cup Final at Lord’s in 2019 are still fresh in Root’s mind, and the star right-hander is hoping he will be able to emulate that victory in India in November and become just the third team after West Indies (1975, 1979) and Australia (1999, 2003, 2007) to claim back-to-back titles.
