London: Australian batsman Chris Rogers considers Middlesex team-mate and opening partner, Sam Robson to be a better opener over England`s Joe Root.
According to BBC, Rogers said that he does not consider Joe Root as an opener , as he plays spin well and is suited for middle order, adding that Robson would be a very good international player.
Root was reportedly dropped from the England Test side after the 5-0 Ashes whitewash, as he averages only 25, since scoring 180 in the second Ashes Test at Lord`s last July.
On the other hand Robson scored five centuries for the England Performance Programme, and the Lions - England`s second-string side on their winter tour of Australia and Sri Lanka, the reports added.
