The Ashes is all set to kick off on 16 June 2023 as two cricketing giants, England and Australia will lock horns in the five-match Test series. However, all eyes will be on Harry Brook as he has lit up the international arena so far with his swashbuckling hitting abilities in the red ball format. His ability to score quickly and big centuries in this format has impressed everyone.

But, he failed to live up to his fans’ expectations in IPL 2023 as Brook scored only 190 runs in 11 games, including one century for his Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) franchise. Now, ahead of the series, Brook opened up about his approach against the Aussie bowlers. He also claimed that it is a dream for him to get involved in an Ashes Test match.  

“I'm looking forward to it. I feel like I'm more part of the team now.” - Harry Brook

He said: "It's a dream come true to be involved in my first Ashes. Growing up I was watching some of these players who are still playing, against the best in the world and the best Australians. I'm looking forward to it. I feel like I'm more part of the team now. Obviously as a deputy you don't quite feel like you're meant to be there if you know what I mean. So to have been contributing and gain a few match-winning performances this winter has meant the world and I feel a big part of the team now."

"If I get a good ball I'm going to try and survive against that good ball, and if he bowls me a bad ball I'll try and hit it for four or six. So it's not necessarily I'm going to come after him and try and hit every ball for six. I'm going to respect the bowler and whatever he bowls and if it is a bad ball I'll try and hit it for six," Brook concluded. As of now, Harry Brook has scored 818 runs in 11 innings of seven matches, at an average of 81.80 and a strike rate of 99.03. He has smashed four centuries and three fifties so far.
