Harry Brook, who had a poor performance with the bat in IPL 2023, is now playing the Ashes series against Australia at Edgbaston. Please tell that today the first match of this series is being played. At the same time, England (ENG vs AUS) got off to a bad start in the match. Because the team lost the wickets of its opening batsmen very quickly. Now one of these wickets also includes that of Harry Brook. This wicket fell in such a way that everyone is surprised after seeing it.
A freak dismissal.

Brook scored 32 off 37 balls and looked to be on a good run until he was dismissed by Nathan Lyon. In the 38th over, after bowling a short length ball, Brook could not get hold of it as it hit his pads and bounced high in the air. Everyone’s eyes including the batsman and the wicketkeeper were on the ball. The ball suddenly came down and hit the stumps after hitting Brook’s leg and thus the players were out. Significantly, in this match, England captain Ben Stokes won the toss and decided to bat, which has proved to be wrong so far.
