BBC • • sports
Key Points:
- Harry Brook scored a crucial century, his first in T20 internationals, to guide England to a two-wicket victory over Pakistan in the T20 World Cup Super 8 stage in Pallekele.
- Promoted to number three, Brook expertly paced his innings, hitting 10 fours and four sixes in a chase of 165 despite early wickets falling around him.
- England struggled with their fielding and lost key batsmen cheaply, but Brook's performance and Jofra Archer's finishing ensured England secured the first semi-final spot.
- England will face an opponent and venue to be decided in India next week, while Pakistan must win their final Group 2 match against Sri Lanka to keep hopes alive.
