London, England - Yorkshire batsman Harry Brook has been hailed as the best batter in the world by his England and county teammate, captain Joe Root. Brook's stunning batting display against New Zealand in the recently concluded series, where he scored a century off 115 balls, convinced Root that "Brooky is by far and away the best player in the world at the minute."
Root praised Brook for his all-round game, saying he can absorb pressure and apply it with ease, while also showcasing incredible skill against both spin and seam bowling. The England captain stated, "He's so hard to bowl to" and expressed admiration for Brook's ability to perform under intense pressure.
Brook's impressive performance in the series has propelled him to the second place on the ICC Test batting rankings, just behind Root himself.
