Joe Root
is seen above playing in the 4th. Ashes Test match at Trent Bridge where he scored 130 - his 8th.
Test century. The picture of him drinking was taken two days later as England celebrated regaining the Ashes
on the very brief third day (10.2 overs). They won by an innings and 78 runs. Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow put up 173
runs for the fourth wicket in England's innings. Australia were bowled out before lunch on the first day for 60 in 18.3 overs,
the least number of overs a team had been bowled out for in the first innings of a Test match.
