Harry Brook Still In Contention To Force His Way Into England's ODI World Cup Squad

England's young batter has another opportunity to prove his case for inclusion in the 15-man squad for the World Cup, following his inclusion in the four-match ODI series against New Zealand. Since Brook got snubbed from England's ODI World Cup squad, he has shown his worth in The Hundred scoring an unbeaten century and hitting 43* and 67 in their first two T20Is against the Kiwis. If he continues to replicate his recent performances, the likes of Jason Roy, Dawid Malan and Liam Livingstone will be a bit worried about their position in the team.

"Unfortunate One At The Moment": Jos Buttler On Harry Brook's Omission From England's Provisional World Cup Squad

England's white-ball captain Jos Buttler has hinted that Harry Brook could yet force his way into the final squad for their World Cup title defence, but emphasised that the "dynamic" of selection was "changed" by Ben Stokes' comeback to ODI cricket as a specialist batter. With Stokes coming out of retirement and a bunch of other experienced, multi-skilled middle-order batters in the group, Brook was edged out in the World Cup squad. Test captain Stokes was chosen as a specialist hitter after reversing his ODI retirement, leaving Brook out of the running and omitting him from the preliminary squad to fly to India. England have until September 28 to finalise their 15-strong group.

With speculations growing regarding his ODI return, England confirmed that Stokes will take part at the marquee event in India.
