England National Cricket Team skipper Harry Brook has continued his golden form with the bat in the ongoing 5th ODI against the Australia National Cricket Team. The last game of the series between the teams is taking place at the County Ground in Bristol.
Harry Brook, who came to bat at No.4, has looked in the positive frame of mind right from the start. The right-hander, right from the start, has tried to take the attack to the bowlers and is making sure he puts his team in the top position after they lost two quick wickets.
Brook came to bat when England lost two wickets in quick succession of time. The right-hander soaked in the pressure, and once he was in, he made sure that didn't go easy on the Australia National Cricket Team bowlers as he smashed them all over the park.
Of all the bowlers, Brook targeted Adam Zampa as he toyed with the leg-spinner and slammed him all over the park. The England National Cricket Team skipper made a mockery of the leg-spinner with his brutal power-hitting and hit 3 massive sixes against him in the 17th over.

Brook slammed his third consecutive half-century of the series and made sure that he took his team to a total of over 200 runs. The right-hander added 132 runs in partnership with Ben Duckett, who has slammed a century and put the opposition under pressure.
While Brook took Adam Zampa to cleaners, the leg-spinner made sure that he took his revenge. He removed him on the last ball of the 25th over and with his wicket, England National Cricket Team lost their third wicket at the crucial juncture of the game.
Adam Zampa bowled a nicely tossed-up delivery on off, to which Harry Brook looked to go big again. He took the aerial route and holed out to long-off. Glenn Maxwell, who was stationed in the deep took a fantastic catch as the England National Cricket Team captain took a long walk back.
Harry Brook ended with a brutal innings for his team and made a vital impact. He slammed a half-century and was back in the hut after scoring 72 runs off just 52 balls. He batted with a strike rate of around 140 and also slammed 3 fours and 7 sixes in his innings.
After his wicket, the England National Cricket Team lost quick wickets and was under pressure. Duckett slammed a terrific ton, but after that, Australia's bowlers were all over the opposition and reduced them from 202/1 to 260/8, with spinners making an impact.
