Baker Has The Ability To Get Wickets And Take Hat-tricks: Brook
New Delhi: England’s white-ball captain Harry Brook has lauded young fast bowler Sonny Baker for his ability to test top players, take wickets in heaps and pick hat-tricks, as he looks primed to get an international cricket debut against South Africa.
Baker, 22, earned a maiden ODI call-up for England’s home series against South Africa, scheduled to be held for September 2, 4 and 7 respectively. His selection comes on the back of an eye-catching campaign in The Hundred, where he claimed a hat-trick for Manchester Originals against Brook’s Northern Superchargers.
Baker removed Dawid Malan with a well-disguised slower ball before striking twice at the death, thus adding to an impressive season that has already seen him dismiss England’s senior batters Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root, and trouble accomplished Australia batters David Warner and Steve Smith.
