'I Was Protecting Them': Brook Admits To Lying About Teammates During NZ Nightclub Incident
The T20 World Cup: England skipper Harry Brook has changed his version of a late-night incident in Wellington last year, when he was struck by a nightclub bouncer, admitting that other players were also present with him during the altercation, after previously claiming he was alone.
However, in a new statement he released on Friday, Brook admitted that other players were with him, admitting he had misled reporters to protect the players "from being drawn into a situation".
“I accept responsibility for my actions in Wellington and acknowledge others were present that evening. I regret my previous comments, and my intention was to protect my teammates from being drawn into a situation that arose as a result of my decisions. I have apologised and will continue to reflect on the matter," said Brook, as quoted by the BBC.
