cron job not running as root user in digital ocean droplet

I created this test bash script

#! /bin/bash

echo "hello"

mkdir  "/karan/washere"

cron job i created, i want to run this cron job to run every min and want the log

#testing if cron job workes or not 
1 * * * * /user/local/bin/bash /root/test.sh  &> /root/crontest.log

I am signed in the droplet as root user

I also have given the permission for the script, using

sudo chmod u+x test.sh

I tried to log the syslog using

sudo grep CRON /var/log/syslog

but didn’t show there also,

let me know if you need any more info or other context,
