Joe Root is one of the biggest names in world cricket and has been amongst the best players over the last decade. Hence, it’s quite surprising that he’s never played an IPL match given that he is also a part of this generation’s fab 4.

He has played 32 T20Is for England and averages 35 while striking at 126. In 77 T20s, he has scored 1897 runs at an average of 33.28 and has a pretty good strike rate of 128.17. The Englishman also has 13 half-centuries to his name.

He gave his name for the IPL Auction in 2018, but surprisingly went unsold and hasn’t registered himself for any auctions other than that. The 30-year-old is a world-class batsman and would be an asset to any team, and hopefully, it won’t be long before we see him in action for an IPL team.
