Joseph Edward Root (born 30 December 1990, Dore, Sheffield, Yorkshire, England) is an English first-class cricketer, who plays for Yorkshire County Cricket Club. He is a classically elegant, right-handed opening batsman and useful occasional off-spinner, much in the mould of former England captain Michael Vaughan. Root is a fan of Vaughan, and has earmarked him as the player he wants to emulate.
Both Root and Vaughan learnt their trade at Sheffield Collegiate Cricket Club, and Vaughan is known to be a fan of his protege.
Root has a brother Billy and is the eldest son of Helen and Matt, a former professional cricketer himself. He soon followed in his father's footsteps by joining Sheffield Collegiate C.C. He was quickly spotted by Yorkshire's young age group coaches and played in Yorkshire Schools' sides since the age of 11. He attended Worksop College in North Nottinghamshire, where he was given a cricket scholarship. In his first season he scored over 2,000 runs, finishing with an average over 50. He then became the youngest player to be awarded a scholarship to the Yorkshire cricket academy at the age of 13.

Joe Root Quick Fire Questions
Para ti tan solo soy el amigo que ya hace falta
Cuando las cosas en tu vida ya no van como esperabas
Ese hombre complaciente, siempre con risa en la cara
Que con una sola frase, te devuelve la esperanza
Para ti no tengo sexo, ni sentimientos ni mas nada
Y si toco a tu puerta, hablando llega la mañana
Y me llevas a tu cuarto, y me sientas en tu cama
No adivinas mis deseos cuando miro yo tu falda
Coro:
Un amigo que no puede aguantar mas estas ganas
De sentirte y abrazarte y enredarte en su alma
Un amigo que se muere porque sepas lo que pasa
Y tu sigues tan tranquila, y tu que no sabes nada
Tu no sospechas que
Cuando me besas se queda temblando mi cara
Tu no sospechas que
Cuando me rozas sin darte cuenta me robas la calma
Tu no sospechas que
Cuando hablamos no advierto a escuchar tus palabras
Porque no sabes que
Cuando yo miro tu boca inocente quisiera besarla
Quisiera tenerla por siempre en la mia
Tu no sospechas que, que de esta forma yo te quiero
(repite coro)
Tu no sospechas que, que de esta forma yo te quiero
