Captaincy Picks for YOR vs WOR

Harry Brook

The uncapped England dasher has been phenomenal this season and played several brilliant knocks. Brook likes to take on the bowlers from the outset and his knack of staying at the crease for long can hurt Worcestershire in this fixture. So far, the youngster has aggregated 183 runs in five outings.

Jordan Thompson

Brook’s teammate Jordan Thompson has also enjoyed a great run this season. With ten wickets in four games, the right-arm pacer is Yorkshire’s most successful bowler this season. On top of that, the southpaw can also contribute with his big-hitting lower down the order. Hence, Worcestershire players need to tackle him effectively.
