‘We fancy our chances’: Harry Brook backs England to

Brook praises team’s ‘T20 depth’ before opener against ScotlandEngland squad ‘weren’t in great space’ at 50-over World Cup

After two World Cup campaigns with wildly different outcomes and a personally challenging start to this year, a leaner, more focused Harry Brook heads into this latest push for global glory confident that England have the power to bring home the trophy.

Doing so would certainly change the narrative from late last year in India, where Jos Buttler’s men were barely also-rans in their own 50-over title defence. Brook, whose first winter with England in 2022-23 returned the T20 World Cup, has a diagnosis for that no-show and, with it, clarity as to how things must differ over the next four weeks.
