Brook Shatters Kohli's Record, Surpasses Dhoni To Achieve Sensational Feat

England stand-in skipper Harry Brook continues his fine form with the bat with a half-century in the fifth and final ODI against Australia on Sunday at County Ground, Bristol. The young batter slammed 72 runs off 52 balls and broke Virat Kohli's five-year-old record. Brook has been leading the English team in the absence of Jos Buttler and inspired his side to bounce back after losing the first two ODIs as they won the next two matches to level the series 2-2 before the fifth match.

The 25-year-old English batting sensation broke Indian batting maestro Kohli's record for most runs by a captain in a bilateral ODI series against Australia. Kohli held the record for five years which he achieved in 2019 with 310 runs from five matches at an average of 62 when Australia toured India for a five-match series.
