England have been impressive on their current tour of India, drawing first blood in the five-match series in Hyderabad and then putting up some fight before losing in Vizag. However, their most experienced batsman—Joe Root—has only 29 (in Hyderabad) to show as his best effort across four innings. Root knows what it takes to score hundreds against India, who he has been facing since 2012-13, the season in which England beat MS Dhoni’s team in India.

Root has scored as many as nine Test centuries against the Indians, two of which have been crafted on Indian soil.
