Harry Brook's on-field presence gives off the vibe of a great leader and he should be the ready replacement for skipper Ben Stokes when the time comes, feels one of England's finest Test captain Michael Vaughan. Brook, a maverick batter, reignited England's hopes in the ongoing Test with an attacking 111 off 98 balls, leaving his team 35 runs away from victory with four wickets in hand heading into the final day. Vaughan, who won 26 out of his 51 Tests as captain, feels that Ollie Pope is a fantastic deputy but when Stokes decides to call time, Brook is the ideal guy to lead England. "Harry Brook, to me, looks a leader. He looks a born leader," Vaughan told the Test Match Special podcast. "If Ben Stokes is injured in the future can't Pope stay as vice-captain and Harry Brook gets the leadership role?" Yorkshire's Brook was appointed England's white-ball captain earlier this year. He won his first series against a below-par West Indies. Vaughan gave his reasons for choosing Brook

Yashasvi Jaiswal wanted to be more consistent on his first tour of England but drew immense satisfaction from his second-innings ton on a spicy pitch at The Oval to help set a massive 374-run target in the fifth Test. Jaiswal ended the series with 411 runs at an average of 41.10 including two centuries and as many fifties. In the initial phase, he was peppered with plenty of short balls into the rib cage, before Jaiswal had his fair share of struggle against Jofra Archer at Lord's. The Indian opener's returns in 10 innings scores of 101, 4, 87, 28, 13, 0, 58, 0, 2, 118 suggest he was not among the most consistent batters but Jaiswal did leave a lasting impact after a decent run in Australia. I think I wanted to do more. I wanted to make my innings bigger than that. So, I could have achieved something else. But it's okay, he told the media on Saturday. I was trying very hard for that and I was enjoying it. Whenever I go out there, I think, as long as I can bat, I enjoy batting as

The incident occurred late on Day 1 when Chris Woakes sprinted from mid-off to cut off a Karun Nair drive heading towards the boundary
England suffered another injury scare after all-rounder Chris Woakes walked off the field on the first day of the fifth and final Test with a suspected shoulder dislocation. The all-rounder had to leave the field after landing awkwardly on his left shoulder while saving a ball hit to the boundary by Karun Nair at long-off late in the opening day of the match on Thursday. Woakes looked in visible pain as he walked off the field with his left arm wrapped in his sweater. "I don't know too much about it, but it doesn't look great," teammate Gus Atkinson said after India reached 204 for 6 at stumps on a rain-affected day. "It's a big shame, last game of the series, and when anyone gets injured, it's a shame. I'm hoping it's not too bad, and whatever it is, he'll get full support from everyone." Woakes has bowled 14 overs so far in the ongoing Test, picking up the crucial wicket of KL Rahul, conceding 46 runs. Woakes' injury has added to the growing list of concerns for England, with t
