Predictably a milionaire
What a talent
Morgan surely has to retire now.
He owes big to Pakistan tours. Probably would have been sold even otherwise. But not for this price given that this is only a mini auction. You need a lot of attention. Cam Green played well during that T20 series in India. That was enough for him
IPL teams value PSL a lot, look how expensive Tim david was sold last year, now Harry brook.
NOPE.IPL teams value PSL a lot, look how expensive Tim david was sold last year, now Harry brook.
If Sam Curran is worth this what are the likes of Bumrah etc worth. Silly money for a guy that has done little in the past in the IPL
"My Mother, Grandmother Started Crying": Harry Brook Reacts On Joining Sunrisers Hyderabad
After being acquired by Sunrisers Hyderabad for INR 13.25 cr, England batter Harry Brook expressed his happiness and said he was lost for words and thanked SRH for picking him for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. Brook has been bought by the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season in 2023 for Rs 13.25 crores."Phew! That was fierce England's Harry Brook is SOLD for INR 13.25 Crore to @SunRisers W.O.W," tweeted IPL.
"Hi Orange Army. I am really excited and grateful for this opportunity to come to the IPL this year. I am really looking forward to play for the Sunrisers Hyderabad. I have heard the atmosphere is unbelievable. One of the best grounds in the comp (competition). So, I am really excited for us to be back to Uppal," Brook said in a video posted by Sunrisers Hyderabad on their Twitter handle.
Brook said he was having dinner with his family when SRH bought him. He will make his IPL debut for the 2016 champions next season.
"I have lost words, I was having dinner with my mother and grandmother, they were crying when SRH picked me up. Thank you so much SRH," Brook said.
Brook recently emerged as the leading run-scorer in the Test series against Pakistan, scoring 468 runs at an average of 93.60, with three centuries and one half-century and the best score of 153. He was also given the 'Man of the Series' for his superb performance in the longer format.
Brook was also given the 'Man of the Series' award for his superb show in the seven-match T20I series against the Asian giants that took place in September-October as a part of the tour. In seven innings, he scored 238 runs at an average of 79.33, with one half-century and the best score of 81*.
Brook became the highest-bought player by SRH in this auction and received the third-highest winning bid for an English player after all-rounders Sam Curran (Rs 18.25cr) and Ben Stokes (Rs 16.25cr).

I never heard of Brooks until the recent T20 tour of Pakistan. I was surprised to find he had even played against India. Didn't do that well. It is not PSL. It is more his international T20/Test performances in Pakistan that played a major role. That is why i even posted before auction that he could fetch millions. I know how the ipl auctions work. Most recent performances are valued extremely highly. Guys like Curran who did well against INdia in Tests, Jamieson once again did well against INdia in tests got auctioned for very high price
Looks all set for a big score today vs SA in 2nd ODI - scoring at a quickish pace as well
==
Harry Brook scores 46-ball fifty for England, his first in ODIs
Looked all set for a 100
Harry Brook c van der Dussen b Markram 80(75) [4s-7 6s-4]
Bazball or not - Harry Brook is doing his own thing - on his way to his 4th Test 100 in his 4th Test! - currently 79*(64)
Harry Brook is heading for greatness. He will etch his name in the history books.
Best England batsman ever in my opinion. He is a mix of Root and Pietersen. England have finally produced a batsman who belongs in the league of Sir Viv, Ponting, Lara, Kohli etc.
Others can wait for 10 years before making such comparisons but I have seen what I need to see. He has everything, and only career-threatening injuries can stop him.
Brook appears to be possibly as good as Pietersen was when he burst onto the international scene in 04/05. And I don’t make that comparison lightly. A special talent.
After four tests?
Hyperbole much?
Closing in on a near run-a-ball century on a green mamba here in NZ. This is a ridiculously talented batter.
Don’t sleep on this kid.
I think he is the Lionel Messi of English cricket. We could be witnessing the birth of the greatest of all time.
Pretty insane to think that he had fc average of 29 a year ago
Seems to be oozing more class and quality every single passing inns, no matter what the conditions he plays positively and dominates the bowling. He's only going to get better as well.

Exceptional talent. Outrageous attacking intent while eschewing risk. How does he do it?
He will be the GOAT all format player.
God forbid if that ever happens! Misbah would have ruined him completely. He would have restrained his stroke playing & forced him to be more "disciplined" & "orthodox". He would have instructed him to follow the template of Azhar Ali as he thinks Azhar is the perfect example of how a test batsman should conduct.He is lucky to have McCullum as his coach , he is batting him but only better and far more consistent. Imagine if he had someone like Misbah as his coach/captain.
Hold your horses! Remember Ben Stokes played an outrageous 250 of some 170 balls in Southern Afrika. Brooks has scored his best 180 odd at slightly over run a ball.
He's going well but hasn't been tested much yet.
He mostly played on flat pitches or SENA pitches. His real test would be dust bowl pitches or other difficult pitches.
He did do well in the tour of Pakitan. But his biggest challenge lies in India. Have to wait and see how he does there.
Given his style of batting, has he been picked by the IPL or PSL or any other L?
This fraud gave up on the PSL after one year—after benefiting massively from it.
A nobody in 2022, now a upcoming star in 2023. He ditched the PSL like an eloping Juliet who abandons her own kin for a luring hoodlum.
PSL franchises should be really careful of selecting grifters and opportunists like him.
There are no international matches of England cricket team. Besides their tour of Bangladesh which barely started, and Harry Brook isn’t taking a part of it.lol, like scoring 1000 championship runs at 100 in fc cricket had nothing to do with his selection. playing the psl helped him adjust to Pakistani conditions, but its not the making of him.
i dont think any england player would choose the PSL over national team duty, hence why there arent any good english players in the league this season.
pretty sure if the PSL wasn't immediately before the IPL and during an England tour he would have played again.

This guy is currently in Florida, attending some MLB clown show & learning some “bazball” from a non-cricketing team.
Not a great start to IPL for him - out for 13
Looked bit nervous today, think the crowd and the magnitude of the event got better off him but he is a top class player and would come good. Hyderabad team should persist with him.

I only watched the 2nd innings and the pitch was looking very hard to bat on. Pace and bounce and spinning. Even Jason Holder was looking like Malcom Marshall.
I agree he will come good.
