Was Happy To Make Most Of The Luck, Says Harry Brook After Making 171 At Christchurch
Harry Brook: England batter Harry Brook said he was happy to make most of the luck he received while hitting a blazing 171 in the first Test against New Zealand at Christchurch on Saturday.
Brook was dropped five times on his way to hitting 171, the highest score by an overseas batter in a Test match at Hagley Oval, as England made 499 and take a 151-run first-innings lead.
“I had a lot of luck, didn’t I? Jesus. I had plenty of jam on my toast in the morning – it was a bit jammy – but I was happy to make the most of it. That first drop (from Phillips when Brook was on 18), I’m not sure many people are catching that, to be honest.”
