The modern day superstar, Harry Brook continues his fine work in Test cricket as he smashed his 6th Test century and 4th against Pakistan in a relatively short career. Brook's stellar Test career started in Pakistan in 2022, and since then he has been one of England's best batter.

Brook, averages more than 110 against Pakistan in Tests, showcasing his prowess against the Asian side in the game's longest format. In just 6 Test matches, Brook has slammed 4 Test tons, with all four coming in Pakistan.

In just 19 Tests, Brook has smacked 6 Test centuries and has certainly become a cornerstone of the new England style of play. He came into bat when the visitors were in a strong position - 249/3. Alongside another centurion, Joe Root, he forged a strong partnership and took the attack to the opposition.

He was at his aggressive best as England pressured Pakistan and pushed them on the back-foot with brutal hitting. Brook’s century was laced with 9 fours and a solitary six and struck at nearly 90.

His century took England’s score past the 400-run mark and the Yorkshire batter also added 150-plus run-stand with Joe Root, who earlier in the day reached his three-figure mark.

England put pressure on Pakistan bowlers

On a flat Multan track, the England batters have taken their opportunities with both hands. Despite losing Ollie Pope early in the innings, Zak Crawley and Joe Root steadied the ship and it was followed by crucial runs from Ben Duckett, who suffered from a thumb injury but came out to bat on Day 3.

The England batters continued the tradition of playing Bazball cricket as Pakistan looked clueless and had no answer to the onslaught from the visitors.
