Can you ace this quiz and name every player dismissed by Joe Root in Test cricket?
The England captain’s bowling remains something of an enigma. His off-spin, to which he has added a handy leg-spin variation, often looks potent, and he even shows up his supposedly more capable full-time spinning teammates at times. Earlier this year he claimed the best figures by an England captain since Bob Willis in 1984.

And yet Root only flirts with part-timer status, flitting between that classification and ‘occasional’. His overall record attests to this: Root has claimed 28 wickets at an average of over 50, but the list of batsmen he has dismissed contains some true greats of the game.
Can you name all 26 players he has dismissed? You have five minutes in which to do so.
