Star England batter Harry Brook continued his run-scoring spree from the Test series against India into the Hundred, as he smacked Tim Southee for an audacious, off-balance \u2018Dilscoop\u2019 on Friday, stunning the commentators as his unique shot went for a six.<\/p>\n

Coming in at 138\/2, Northern Superchargers skipper Brook didn\u2019t take any time to settle in and was on fire from the word go.<\/p>\n

Southee, who served as a specialist skills consultant for England during the India Test series, found himself on the receiving end of the daring stroke. Watch the video here:<\/span><\/p>\n

Coming in after wicketkeeper Michael Pepper had been dismissed by Southee, Brook produced a brilliant variation of the stroke popularised by Tillakaratne Dilshan, directing it into a region targeted by Brendon McCullum.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brook got under a length ball from Southee, executing a reverse scoop over the keeper\u2019s head, even losing his balance and falling on the crease in the process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brook tumbled onto his back, gazing up as the delivery sailed into the stands. <\/span>He faced 14 off the next 26 deliveries, powering his way to 31* with the help of another six and two boundaries.<\/span><\/p>\n

The knock carried the Superchargers to 193\/5, the highest total in two years, which the Birmingham Phoenix fell short of by 36 runs. <\/span><\/p>\n

Star England batter Zak Crawley and <\/span>Dawid<\/span> Malan put on a 67-run opening partnership earlier, laying the foundation for Brook\u2019s late assault. <\/span><\/p>\n

For Birmingham, Liam Livingstone and Jacob Bethell put on an important 80-run partnership, but no one else could cross 15.\u00a0<\/span>The Superchargers hold the top spot on the table, boasting three victories from four matches.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Notably, Brook was England\u2019s second-highest run-scorer, only behind ace batter Joe Root, in the recent Test series against India, where he scored 481 runs in five matches, at a stunning average of 53.44.<\/p>\n
