IND vs Eng 5th Test: Ravi Shastri compared Harry Brook to Rishabh Pants, which after a fierce knock in the oval. Cricket news

Rishabh Pant’s shades were in the fearless approach of Harry Brook on 4 of the fifth test at the Oval, and it did not pay any attention. Ravi Shastri, former head coach and commentator of India, made a direct comparison between the two, stating how the England batsman shifted the game speed with his aggressive batting. Speaking on Sky Sports Cricket during the lunch break, Shastri said, “The first hour was attentive-good bowling, batsmen, fielders as well as bowlers as well as a lot of chats-and India raised a couple of wickets. Then there was a counter-atac in the next one hour. Suddenly there was a sessov fight.”

“England started putting pressure on India, the fielders began to disappear in the outfield, took the catch, going to the boundary line – everything started happening, which often happens when someone comes out of there and Rishabh is a bats like pants. Harry Brook was doing a Rishabh Pant for England today, and you could see the speed almost immediately, “Shastri said, who praised where it was. After the dismissal of England captain Oli Pope, Brook came and wasted no time. His aggressive strokeplay, especially dealing with his speed, ignored India’s bowling plans and brought England back into the competition. His attacker approach also earned him a piece of luck. Mohammad Siraj caught a batsman to dismiss Brook, but stepped on the rope before achieving the balance – handed six runs and another chance to the batsman. Brook left a pant -like impression on the first day when he fell to Sirj falling for six that shocked commentators and fans equally. With England chasing a challenging target, Brook’s counter attack has proved significant.

The batsman has already claimed a fighting fifty, which has reached milestones in just 39 balls, making it fifty his 14th Test match. Brook’s fifty testing is the fastest combined by the England batsman against India. Noticely, it is also his second fastest half-century, only behind his 37-ball attempt against New Zealand in Mount Munggui in 2023.
