Harry Brook's reaction in the 34th over of England's chase said it all. Who cares? He does. The relief flowed after his maiden ODI century, a feeling you could apply more broadly to the last week, his central part in it and the situation his team faced at the Seat Unique Riverside.

Coming to the crease at 11 for two after both openers had fallen to Mitchell Starc, he peeled off a sensational 110 not out. Rain meant England were unable to complete their pursuit of 305 but the hosts still walked away with a 46-run win on Duckworth-Lewis-Stern thanks to Brook’s brilliance and a stand of 156 with Will Jacks (84).

England beat Travis Head and Adam Zampa-less Australian side in the third ODI in Durham to stay alive in the five-match assignment with the DLS method deciding the result. Will Jacks and Harry Brook's 156-run partnership was the centre of England's win as captain smashed his maiden ODI hundred.
