Brook, who had taken a break as his grandmother was not well and eventually passed away, missed the Test series against India and then the 2024 edition of the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/ipl\" rel=\"noopener\">IPL<\/a> for the Delhi Capitals but made himself available for Yorkshire from the start of the County Championship so that he could stay with his family in grief.  <!-- \/8323530\/ITv_Desktop_VDO_1X1 -->\n  <\/p>\n<p>Riding on Ben Mike&#8217;s 113-ball 90 and fifties from Marcus Harris and Tom Scriven, Leicestershire posted a strong first-innings score of 354 after being put in to bat first. Yorkshire came out all guns blazing with Adam Lyth scoring a a run-a-ball ton. Yorkshire did lose regular wickets in the top order but Lyth and Harry Brook&#8217;s partnership kept them afloat.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth-wicket partnership of 128 runs between Lyth and Brook came off just 92 deliveries as the Shan Masood-led side gave it back to\u00a0Leicestershire. Lyth was dismissed immediately after his century by Scriven but Brook carried on and completed his hundred as well off just 69 balls.<\/p>\n<p>Brook put on a clinic as even though Ben Mike delivered with the ball as well for\u00a0Leicestershire taking a couple of wickets in the same over, Brook didn&#8217;t stop as his attractive knock containing 14 fours and a couple of sixes took Yorkshire&#8217;s score beyond 250. It will be a confidence-boosting knock for Brook given he will be in the England\u00a0side&#8217;s squad for the T20 World Cup and will be looking to prepare well through the County season.<\/p>\n<p>Yorkshire declared soon after to let\u00a0Leicestershire bat again but it was already too late and the match was drawn.<\/p>\n<p>Brook&#8217;s absence for Delhi Capitals has given Tristan Stubbs a permanent spot in the middle-order and the 23-year-old Proteas batter has been in smashing form for the 2020 finalists having played knocks of 43*, 54 and 71* at a strike rate of 193.33.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/cricket\/pulled-out-of-ipl-2024-harry-brook-slams-a-69-ball-century-for-yorkshire-on-return-to-cricket-in-county-championship-2024-04-08-925321\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source : GETTY Harry Brook returned to playing competitive cricket for the first time since December 2023 in the County Championship for Yorkshire England batter Harry Brook made a return to competitive cricket after four months in Yorkshire&#8217;s first match of the County Championship Division Two against Leicestershire and smashed a 69-ball century as [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":21434,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/resize.indiatvnews.com\/en\/centered\/newbucket\/1200_675\/2024\/04\/77500-1712588020.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[605],"tags":[26998,26625,14828,26997,270,999,788,11963,26994,26993,26992,26995,336,337,5145,26996,3950,8338,23486],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21433"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21433"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21433\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21435,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21433\/revisions\/21435"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21434"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21433"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21433"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21433"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
