VIDEO: Harry Brook, who was losing his senses in excitement, the bat was blown into the air and lost wicket
England star batsman Harry Brook scored a century in the second innings of the Oval Test against India to take his team to the threshold of victory. However, the way he was out was quite unfortunate. He lost his senses in the process of showing enthusiasm against Akash Deep and lost his wicket along with his bat.
Brooke completed his century from just 91 balls, the third fastest century made by any England batsman in Test matches against India. Before him, there are only Jamie Smith (80 balls) and Ben Docket (88 balls), who have done this feat. However, only after scoring a century, he was seen taking an aggressive stance and in this affair he became the first victim of Akash Deep.
Brooke was dismissed on a ball that was just a little away from the off stump and tried to give himself some space. His intention was to hit the ball over the covers, but he could sliced it. His bat went towards the leg side, while the ball jumped towards the off side. Mohammad Siraj made no mistake this time and went to the left on the mid-off and easily caught the catch.

At the same time, while playing this shot, Brook also missed a bat from his hand so that he could not even kill the shot. Brooke’s innings ended after scoring 111 runs off 98 balls with the help of 14 fours and two sixes.
He added 195 runs with Joe Root and beat the Indian bowlers fiercely. Now the match has reached the fifth day where India needs 4 wickets to win, while the English team is just 35 runs away from creating history.
