62.4
W
Akash Deep to Brook, out Caught by Siraj!! He's lost his bat and his wicket! India break this tormenting stand but is it too little too late? Just a fraction short on off-stump, Brook stepped out and gave himself room, he was looking to slap that over the covers but just sliced it, his bat flew into the leg-side while the ball flew up and into the off-side. Siraj, who dropped Brook when he was on just 19, moves to his left at mid-off and completes an easy catch this time. Brook walks off to a standing ovation. His knock has put this game in England's basket and it's now up to India to try and snatch it away before they checkout at the till. Brook c Siraj b Akash Deep 111(98) [4s-14 6s-2]

Tossed up full on off-stump, Brook prods forward and blocks, just opens the face of the bat on contact and it goes down fine to third man, they scamper back for two and everyone is on their feet to applaud a truly scintillating knock! Takes off his helmet and punches the air, before revealing a beaming smile towards the dressing room. Root races over to embrace and applaud him. I0$ They think the world of this West Yorkshireman in England, and today's knock proved why everyone with a penchant for cricket gets so excited when Harry Brook walks out to bat for England. He came out when the hosts were in a bit of trouble and India had the tail up, but with this ton has quelled quite a lot of English fears and guided them in the direction of a famous, famous win!
