Grandmother Comes Before All Of It: Harry Brook Says 'not Going For India Test Tour Was A Big Decision'
The Daily Telegraph: England batter Harry Brook said pulling out of this year’s Test tour of India was a big decision to make as his grandmother Pauline, who passed away in March, came first for him before anything else, adding that all of his runs scored in this summer will be dedicated to her.
Brook, 25, opted out of England’s Test tour of India and from IPL 2024, where he was supposed to play for Delhi Capitals, due to personal reasons. Brook has returned to cricket through county championship for Yorkshire, and scored a century in the ongoing match against Derbyshire, after scoring a ton previously against Leicestershire.
"When I came home from Abu Dhabi, it was a very tough time, and I’m glad I did come home. Obviously, it was a big decision to make. I hadn’t played hundreds of games for England, so to just turn down a big Test tour like that (India) was a big decision to make.
