England captain Root backs team to build on Headingley win

England captain Joe Root has said his team have the quality to consistently deliver performances similar to their crushing win over India in the third test at Headingley on Saturday.

England, after being comprehensively outplayed in the second test at Lord's, thrashed the visitors by an innings and 76 runs to level the five-test series at 1-1. "I've always known what we're capable of doing. Everyone in this group has shown that they're good enough to perform and to deliver performances like that collectively," Root told reporters on Saturday.
