Joe Root urged to resign as England captain as his side lose third Test, and series, against the West Indies
Joe Root has been urged to resign as England captain by Steve Harmison as his side lost the third Test, and the series, against the West Indies.
“There’s going to be a lot talked about Joe Root’s captaincy,” Harmison told talkSPORT. “My opinion is he needs to do it himself now for his own good. Instead, he was backed by Andrew Strauss, managing director of England cricket, and now he faces either the choice of carrying on with Root, sacking him or hoping the skipper will relinquish the role.
