According to BBC, Harry Brooke said after the third ODI, People took it a bit the wrong way. You have to go out there and play fearlessly and almost have an attitude of who cares. It’s not like who cares if we lose. We still want to win but you don’t want to go out there and play with the fear of getting out. We have seen so many times in Test environments how people are getting out. You have to have a fearless attitude and dominate the bowlers.

Speaking further, Brook said, I think this summer I’ve been playing off and on, scoring a lot of 30s and 40s. I think I’m back in good shape again, playing the ball late and keeping my head steady.
