England’s ace batter Joe Root has gone past former Indian opener Sunil Gavaskar’s tally of 34 centuries as he brought up his 35th on day 3 of the opening Test against Pakistan at the Multan Cricket Stadium. The right-handed batter did so by playing a reverse sweep against leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed as a video of the same surfaced on social media.
