The English cricket team has been lighting up the field with fireworks. The intent they enter the ground with is unmatched. After Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes took over the reins of the team, it is as if the whole approach of the team has changed. 

The Three Lions are playing every game with utmost aggression, even in Test cricket. With the changed approach the team look dangerous. 

23 year-old Harry Brook recently joined England has been a batter to reckon with. In a Test match against Pakistan at Rawalpindi, Brook batted with a threatening strike rate of 132.59.

Brook opens up on what England's approach looks like

"It feels like you can go out and do whatever you want. If I want to reverse sweep first ball, I have licence almost. You feel like you can do anything," 

"The captain is leading from the front. His first innings was unbelievable. He only got 41 but he scored at a strike-rate of 227. If we didn't bat like we did in that first innings, we would have had no chance of winning the game,”

"How the boys have taken things on has been exceptional. To have the confidence from everyone around you in the changing room, the coach especially, makes it so much easier."

"I think in the future we are going to see more people at a younger age sack off red-ball cricket - I reckon there are going to be a lot of white-ball contracts soon. I am probably not going to be one of them. I still think Test cricket is the best format.
