Australian captain Mitch Marsh has shrugged that his opposite number Harry Brook was "just too good" after the brilliant young batter guided England to an ODI series-saving, rain-affected victory at Chester-le-Street's Riverside ground.
Brook, standing in for the injured Jos Buttler as skipper, blasted a maiden unbeaten ODI ton to beat the bad weather too on Tuesday, ensuring England were a commanding 46 runs ahead on the DLS method when the rains came to ruin the end of an an engrossing contest.
Australia badly missed their poorly star spinner Adam Zampa as the world champions' ODI win streak was ended at 14 matches, with England now back in business at 2-1 down in the five-match series and feeling confident for the two remaining matches, at Lord's on Friday and Bristol on Sunday.
