Harry Brook, 23, was a key member of England’s 20-20 World Cup-winning team in Australia last month and is considered the next great thing in English cricket. Like with veteran teammate Stokes, Brook withstood the storm in the final match against Pakistan with a 23-ball 20, but the reckless batter also has what it takes to frustrate the opposition with his powerful strokeplay.
Brook gained notoriety in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) earlier last year when he scored the champion Lahore Qalandars team’s second-fastest PSL century (48 balls). As the youngest player to accomplish the milestone (at 22 years and 362 days), Brook scored 264 runs in eight innings, striking out at 171.42 per cent.
