In the ongoing fifth Ashes Test at The Oval in London, England batsman Harry Brook has reminisced on his fifty-first run. On Day 1 of the last Test, England, who had been given the opportunity to bat first, scored 283 runs in their opening innings, and Brook was instrumental in helping his team reach that total.
When it comes to interpreting the lines and lengths of the bowlers, Brook noted that his performance has substantially improved. Before being caught by pacer Mitchell Starc, Brook impressively scored 85 runs off 91 pitches. 11 boundaries and two maximums were part of his knock.
I simply thought that it was a rather minor hit given the wind conditions and Starc’s brisk pace. I believed that attempting to hit it there was largely ineffective.
Then, with the other, I simply liked the length and picked it up quickly, Harry Brook told Sky Sports.
The 24-year-old proceeded by stating that he wasn’t just trying to get by on the field since it would be ‘useless’ to him.
“I think I’ve gotten a lot better at that in the last couple of years. I can always find the relief I require as long as my head is steady and I’m not moving. My hands have always seemed to move rather quickly, which I believe helps when I’m trying to score. I believe I’ve stated it before, but I’m rather useless if I’m trying to survive, he said.
In 2023, Pat Cummins and company aim to win the Ashes.
