ODIs Against Australia Good Chance For Brook To Gain International Leadership Experience: Topley
T20 World Cup: England’s upcoming five-match ODI series against Australia will see a new leader for the hosts in young batter Harry Brook. He gets the top job after regular skipper Jos Buttler was ruled out due to a calf injury he sustained in July. Brook had captained England in the 2018 Under-19 World Cup and recently led Northern Superchargers in The Hundred this year, where the team won five out of six matches under him.
