Jacob's rapid 82 steals skipper Harry's thunder
ENGLAND’S latest white-ball reboot under new captain Harry Brook started in stunning fashion as they thrashed the West Indies by 238 runs at Edgbaston.
A decade on from posting a 400-plus total in ODIs for the first time to kick-start the revival under Eoin Morgan, England piled up 400-8 in this series opener despite no one reaching three figures.
Brook was one of four batters to pass fifty as he recorded 58 off 45 balls but Warwickshire’s Jacob Bethell stole some of his thunder by top-scoring with 82 off 53 deliveries.
Ollie Pope and Zak Crawley quietened their critics with centuries against Zimbabwe but calls for Bethell to return to the Test side are only likely to grow.
