Joe Root made history in Wellington. He became the first Englishman to reach 100 fifty-plus scores in Tests. Root joined legends like Tendulkar, Kallis, and Ponting. He scored his 65th half-century against New Zealand. Root is also close to another record. He needs 83 more runs to score 1500 Test runs in multiple calendar years.
