This cmdlet is still not there AFAIK, but there are workarounds to get what you need:
- Via SPFx Extension + creating a modern page as home page for your root site collection: http://sharepoint.handsontek.net/2019/02/05/convert-classic-root-sites-to-modern-sharepoint/
- via redirectio: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/SharePoint-Developer/Convert-Classic-root-site-to-Communication-site/td-p/213004

jcgonzalezmartin  thanks for the reply. i actully read these links before , but i have these comments:-

for this link https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-SharePoint-Blog/Build-your-modern-intranet-with-SharePoint-in-Office-365/ba-p/255453 the replies are saying that this approach is not supported

for this link http://sharepoint.handsontek.net/2019/02/05/convert-classic-root-sites-to-modern-sharepoint/ it is saying to add modern pages + "Create a full width landing page" app inside our classic team site. so at the end my site is a classic team site with modern experience. but i want my root site to be an actual communication site ..

can you advice on my above 2 points?

Thanks
