Harry Brook vs Shubman Gill: Comparing international stats

Harry Brook and Shubman Gill are two of the most talented batters in modern-day cricket. Both of them have played some memorable knocks for their respective national teams so far.

Brook, 26, is the current white-ball captain of the England team. He took over the reins from Jos Buttler after the Three Lions failed to qualify for the knockout stages of the 2025 Champions Trophy. Brook is known for his positive approach to batting and likes to take the attack to the opposition by playing an aggressive brand of cricket.

The right-handed batter has all the shots in the book. Apart from textbook drives, Brook has got some unorthodox ramp shots and innovative reverse sweeps that help him upset a bowler's line and length. The Keighley-born cricketer has played 30 Tests, 29 ODIs, and 47 T20Is so far. He has been prolific in the longest format of the game, averaging over 57. However, he is still finding his feet in the white-ball formats.

Meanwhile, the 25-year-old Shubman was earmarked for massive success ever since he won the Player of the Tournament award in the U-19 World Cup in 2018. Since then, the Punjab batter has gone from strength to strength, taking very little time to showcase his class in international cricket, especially in the white-ball formats.

Shubman is an orthodox batter, who relies on textbook shots to score his runs. He has had some problems against balls that swing or seam late into his pads. However, he is pretty difficult to dismiss once he gets set . Even in T20 cricket, Shubman rarely plays unorthodox shots, as he has the ability to keep the scoreboard ticking and hit boundaries effortlessly.

Interestingly, Shubman was appointed captain in Tests, a format where he had struggled to live up to his expectations before the 2025 Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. Similarly, Brook has been made England's captain in white-ball cricket, formats where he is still finding his feet. However, expect the two phenomenal talents to work on their rare shortcomings in the months to come. Both of them are destined for greatness and their progress so far is quite promising.
