Joe Root batted the entirety of day three in Hamilton to help put England in a strong position to at least avoid defeat and maybe even seal a series levelling victory. He combined with fellow centurion Rory Burns to record England’s highest partnership of the calendar year. Yas Rana talks to Lawrence Booth on the phone at Seddon Park and Taha Hashim in the Wisden offices about an encouraging day for the tourists.
