Harry Brook continued England‘s dominance on Day 3 of the first Test against Pakistan in Multan, adding to their strong position. Following former captain Joe Root’s remarkable century 🍎earlier in the day, Brook, the rising star of English cricket, took charge and delivered a dazzling century that left Pakistan struggling to stay in the gam꧒e.
Harry Brook follows Joe Root’s lead
After Root’s milestone century in the second session, Brook showcased his own brilliance in the final session. Facing Saud Shakeel in the 84th over of England’s innings, Brook cut a flat outside-off delivery towards point, where a misfield allowed him to complete the couple of runs he needed to reach the 100-run mark. Celebrating the feat, Brook 🤪removed his helmet and raised his arms in triౠumph as his teammates applauded from the dressing room balcony.
Brook’s fourth century against Pakistan
This century marked Brook’s fourth Test hundred against Pakistan in just six innings—a remarkable achievement for the 25-year-old. Brook had dominated during Enౠgland’s previous tour of Paki﷽stan and has continued his impressive run in this series.

Brilliant centuries by the two Yorkies, & – I have a feeling they will end up being the two greatest England batsmen ever. Root’s already No1, and if Brook carries on like this, he’ll end up No2.
Both just wonderful to watch.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan)

which makes it three consecutive tons for him in…— Spandan Roy (@talksports45)
Harry Brook is treating Shaheen Afridi like a school boy cricketer. Not only Shaheen, Naseem Shah, Aamir Jamal and Abrar Ahmad, they all are looking very ordinary. It's so frustrating to see the world class bowling getting bashed by England batters like a club team.

Harry Brook is the first ever batter to score a 100 in four consecutive Tests on Pakistan soil. He scored three in the 2022 series and now starts the 2024 ꦗseries with another hundred.
