India vs england 3rd test: Joe Root has fallen behind the records of Rahul Dravid. This batter of England broke two big records of Rahul Dravid in a single day during the Lord’s Test. He scored a century on the second day of this match. Root also overtook Dravid’s record of most Test centuries. Joe Root also made the world record of taking the most catches in Test cricket a few hours later. Before the route, this record was named after Rahul Dravid.

July 11, 2025 proved to be a significant date for cricket’s recordbook. This was the second day of the third Test being played between India and England. Joe Root scored a century on this day. This is his 37th Test century. With this century, he left behind Rahul Dravid and Steve Smith (36-36 Test centuries). Root has also come at number five in the list of batteries who scored the most Test century. Dravid had scored 36 centuries in his 164 Test career. Root has crossed this stop in the 156th Test. Sachin Tendulkar has the record for the highest record of 51 Test centuries.

There is a possibility that Joe Root will also leave Rahul Dravid soon in terms of Test runs. Ravid’s Test matches are 13,288 runs. The route has scored 13,219 runs. Now to get ahead of Dravid, Joe Root needs only 70 runs.

Sachin’s record of 68 fifty also in danger
In Test cricket, Sachin Tendulkar has the highest number of 68 half -centuries. Joe Root and Shivnarayan Chandrapaul are second in this case with 66-66 fifty. Chandrapall has retired but Joe Root is scoring fast. It should not be surprised if they go ahead of Sachin’s half-centuries during the Indo-England Test series.
