Brook started watchfully as England looked to bounce back from their 87-run defeat to Pakistan in their opening match, collecting 13 from his first 24 balls but he hardly looked back after belting part-time left-arm spinner Kamindu Mendis for two successive sixes. The Yorkshireman’s expert use of the crease and dexterity saw him score runs all around the ground, Sri Lanka increasingly powerless to stop him, as he ran up 21 fours and 10 of England’s 13 sixes. asserted

Brook moved past Ben Stokes’ England-best 182 in ODIs in the penultimate over and went to 200 off 114 balls – the fastest ever double hundred in this format – in the final over before holing out for 202 off the last ball of the innings. asserted
