"Everybody's in the mix: whoever does well. He (Crawley) obviously has the attributes that we're talking about: putting pressure on the bowlers with their good and bad balls; he can manipulate the field really well; he's good against fast bowling and he's good against spin. He's got all the attributes to play white-ball (cricket) for England.

"It's the same with everybody. Everybody's been talking about Jordan Cox: he's obviously an unbelievable player, alongside Creeps. You've just got to keep on doing it, and be as consistent as you can for a long period of time… It's good to have competition (for places)," Brook was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo.

"It's unfortunate that we didn't get through - but that's cricket. We've had an unbelievable season. This comp's been so much fun, playing with some really good lads and alongside Fred (head coach Andrew Flintoff) who is an absolute legend, so I've had a lot of fun," he added.
