Root hit 83 from 44 balls as England completed the highest successful run chase in the ICC World T20 by trumping South Africas 229-4 with two balls remaining in a pulsating clash in Mumbai.The Yorkshiremans half-century was his third in 14 T20I innings while he has also plundered a combined 17 tons in Test and ODI cricket, averaging over 54 in the former and over 44 in the latter, before the age of 26. People were asking where Roots place was in Englands T20 side a while ago but he strikes it a similar rate as Jos Buttler, who is this legendary T20 player. Nasser Hussain He is the best England batsman across all forms of cricket ever, Hussain told Sky Sports after Root helped England respond to Wednesdays Chris Gayle-inspired defeat to West Indies.I know that is a big comment but can you name another batsman who could do what he does as well as him?People were asking where Roots place was in Englands T20 side a while ago but he strikes it a similar rate as Jos Buttler, who is this legendary T20 player. Joe Root picked up the Man of the Match award after he lead to a massive win over South Africa in the World T20 He just does it in a different way - with Jos you know he is striking it well, whereas with Joe he has 40 off 20 and you wonder how he has done it.Apart from his back, I dont think England have to wrap him up in cotton wool - (Indias Virat) Kohli can cope with the pressure and stardom and Joe will learn to do the same.He is our best player, a star, and will only get better - these are the best years of his life. Matt Prior picked out the performances of Jason Roy and Alex Hales, who helped set up Englands victory over South Africa in the World T20. Roots knock at Wankhede Stadium, which contained six fours and four sixes, came after Jason Roy (43 from 16) and Alex Hales (17 from 7) had thumped England to 48-0 within the third over of their innings.Hussain heaped praise on Englands opening duo and the teams bottle - but was scathing of the bowling performances from both sides in Mumbai, as 459 runs were smashed in 39.4 overs.Its one thing chasing 230 when its your first game and there is another tomorrow but another when if you lose the game you are probably out, added Hussain, as England joined West Indies and Sri Lanka on two points in Group 1.England showed a lot of bottle and the 40-odd runs that Hales and Roy put on, which wont get much of a mention, got them off to flyer that South Africa couldnt come back from. Nick Knight felt Englands bowling performance against South Africa was awful and that it was chaos at times The bowling was horrendous, though - England bowled too wide and South Africa bowled too straight.The batting in limited-over cricket has gone up exponentially - the 360 shots played are unimaginable - but the bowling is no better than it was a decade ago, perhaps because of the pressure put on bowlers by batsmen.Watch Englands next World T20 game, against Afghanistan, from 9am, Wednesday, Sky Sports 2.

The Los Angeles Kings are starting to look like the Los Angeles Kings. Drew Doughty broke a tie 3:51 into the third period with his ninth goal of the season, and the surging Kings beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-2 Thursday night for their franchise-record tying eighth straight road win. "To be hitting our stride at this point and beating some very good teams we had to play in the East right now, thats a confidence booster," Doughty said. Alec Martinez and Jeff Carter also scored for Los Angeles, and Martin Jones made 35 saves. The Kings, who have won five straight overall, tied the club road record set from Dec. 18, 1974-Jan. 16, 1975 by earning one-goal victories during a three-game swing through Philadelphia, Washington and Pittsburgh. "All three teams are in different places in their standings, so if you can get six points you take it," Kings coach Darryl Sutter said. The Penguins rallied from a 2-0 deficit to tie it on goals by Chris Kunitz and Taylor Pyatt. Jeff Zatkoff stopped 29 shots but couldnt get a handle on Doughtys booming slap shot early in the third. A potential tying goal by Penguins forward Brandon Sutter midway through the third was waved off due to goaltender interference following an extended scramble around the Kings net. Sutter eventually poked it by Jones while getting cross-checked from behind just before the net came off its moorings. After a brief conference, the call stood. While that galvanized the Penguins, it didnt exactly rattle the Kings. "I didnt have much of a view, but I just felt the puck under me," Jones said. "I just honestly saw the replay, but I felt like I got pushed in. Its the refs judgment there, so Im happy we got the call there." Los Angeles escaped by stifling Pittsburghs top-ranked power play. The Penguins went 0 for 7 with the man advantage as the unit continues to struggle without centre Evgeni Malkin, who is out for at least two weeks with a foot injury. Pittsburgh is 0-2 without Malkin and has dropped three straight overall. Though the Penguins remain in firm control of the Metropolitan Division, they failed to earn a point, postponing their eighth straight trip to the playoffs. "We did some good things," Pittsburgh centrre Sidney Crosby said. Rob Holding Jersey. "It just couldnt go in. Its disappointing when you have that many opportunities. Its not common when you get that many. You want to make sure you try to make them count. We didnt do that." The Kings have spent most of the season muddling in the middle of the loaded Western Conference but are peaking as the post-season nears. They pulled out a 5-4 shootout win in Washington on Tuesday, roaring back from two goals down in the third to earn the victory. There would be no heroics necessary this time. Despite the series of penalties, the Kings looked every bit the stingy bunch that won the Stanley Cup in 2012 and made it to the conference finals last year. "Our penalty kill was unbelievable," Jones said. "Everybody who was out there was awesome, blocking shots. Thats a pretty good power play to do it against, so we did a good job all night." The Penguins took the day off on Wednesday, cancelling practice after a lacklustre 3-2 loss to Phoenix the day before. Pittsburgh held a brief players-only meeting after the loss, which dropped the team to 6-6-2 since the break. It was hard to tell whether the rest helped early, as the Kings sprinted to a 2-0 lead. Carter deflected Marian Gaboriks slap shot past Zatkoff for his 26th goal of the season 15:23 into the game. The Kings made it 2-0 on a similar play 6:59 into the second as Tyler Toffoli was parked in front of Zatkoff and provided a perfect screen for Martinezs shot from the point. Pittsburgh responded 34 seconds later when Kunitz poked in a rebound for his 33rd goal. Pyatt added his fourth of the season to tie it. His knuckling wrist shot hit Jones in the blocker pad and flipped over the goalies shoulder and rolled into the net. No matter, Jones responded with a no-look blocker save on defenceman Matt Niskanen moments later that kept the game tied long enough for Doughty to win it.
