He said that as a captain he could not have expected better than this. Brook said that the entire tournament proved to be good for England, but today luck was not on his side. Brook was proud of the team and said that everyone played their respective roles well. Unfortunately, they could not overcome the challenge of the semi-finals.

This statement was given on Bumrah

Harry Brook said about Jasprit Bumrah, “He is a very good bowler and probably the best bowler in the world in the current era. He has been bowling excellently for a long time. The Indian players did excellent fielding. The catch taken by Axar Patel was also very good. The Indian team is worthy of praise.”

Let us remind you that Akshar Patel took an excellent catch in the match and his jugalbandhi with Shivam Dubey at the boundary was also worth watching. On the other hand, when all the bowlers were being beaten on the Wankhede pitch, Bumrah gave only 33 runs in 4 overs.
