Joe Root has already drawn comparisons with two of Yorkshire's finest batsmen.
He is a product of Sheffield Collegiate, the same nursery that produced Michael Vaughan, while his patience and stubbornness at the crease had Geoffrey Boycott gushing that he reminded him of himself. Observers have noted that Root's front foot driving is similar to Vaughan's and, unsurprisingly, the two batsmen have a mutual admiration for each other.
Root made his mark with the England Under-19 squad in Bangladesh, shortly before the youth World Cup in New Zealand in 2010. He signed a three-year contract with Yorkshire that year. The 2011 season proved to be a breakthrough season for Root as he made 1,013 runs at 36.17, before making an unbeaten century in Sri Lanka on his second England Lions tour that winter.
Root enhanced his burgeoning reputation with an unbeaten 222 against Hampshire at West End in 2012, one of several fine performances he produced en route to being named the Cricket Writer's Club Young Player of the Year. His form earned him a call up to the England senior squad for their tour of India. He did not disappoint, marking his Test debut in Nagpur with 73 runs from 229 balls - England’s sixth-longest debut innings.
Root has become an increasingly prominent member of the England squad in all three formats of the game and in February 2013 was rewarded with an incremental contract for 2012/13. Having qualified for the award by virtue of having played one Test match, one T20 and five ODIs against India, in addition to a T20 and ODI during the tour of New Zealand.
He celebrated the award in fine style two days later, hitting an unbeaten 79 as England levelled the series against the Kiwis. In doing so, he became the first England player to start his ODI career with six scores of 30 or more.
