Reports suggest that Sourav Ganguly has suggested the franchise to include Joe Root in their middle order for the next edition. It is to be noted that Root was unsold in 2018 auctions. Not just him, Amla and many other classy players hadn”t received a contract. Root”s gritty knock against Sri Lanka in the second test match has redefined his ability to bat under pressure. His knock of 124 with a splendid strike rate brought the game to life.

It will be interesting if Jindal can take this tweet as a blessing in disguise and work on picking the 27-year old to the side. Root is now ranked number four in both ODI”s and tests and his addition is definitely a boost for any franchise he represents.
