Brook named new England white-ball cricket captain
Harry Brook

Harry Brook has been appointed as England's new white-ball captain, leading both the one-day international and Twenty20  teams, the England and Wales Cricket Board announced Monday.

The 26-year-old Yorkshire batsman was the favourite to succeed Jos Buttler,  who stood down in February after a woeful Champions Trophy campaign in Pakistan ended with England failing to reach the semi-finals.
