Cricket News Desk. England star batsman Harry Brook disagrees with Indian coach Gautam Gambhir’s decision to choose ‘Man of the Series’. On Gautam Gambhir’s decision, Brooke said that the honor Joe Root should have been received, who performed brilliantly in the five -Test series. After the series 2–2, the coaches of both teams selected a player of the opposing team for the ‘Man of the Series’ award. England head coach Brendon McCullum chose captain Shubman Gill as India’s best performance, while Gambhir chose Brook as England’s best performance.
Brooke told the BBC, “I did not score as many runs as I did not score Ruti (Joe Root), so I think he should be the ‘Man of the Series’. He should be the best player in England again in this summer.” He said, “The series was fantastic. To be honest, I did not think that the series would be good.” Brooke scored 481 runs in the series at an average of 53.44, while Root scored 537 runs at an average of 67.12.
Harry Brook expressed grief over losing the match
Harry Brook looked quite disappointed after the defeat in the Oval Test against India. Brook performed brilliantly for England in this match and scored a century in the second innings. After the match, Brook said, ‘I intended to score as soon as possible. If the root and I stayed there, the match would have been over. If I was out, the match would have been over. But our efforts did not succeed.
He said, ‘I was very confident at that time. If I had scored 30 runs quickly in the next few overs, the match would have been over. I always try to pursue the match and pressurize the opposing team. I wish I could stand till the end. ‘
