Skipper Brook's thrilling ton spooks the Aussies

HAUNTING HARRY

GHOSTBUSTER Harry Brook took the Aussies on a guided tour of their favourite haunt with a brilliant 87-ball hundred.

Beneath the fortress of Lumley Castle at Chester-Le-Street, Brook's first century as stand-in England captain kept the Metro Bank one-day series alive.

A rousing six-wicket win under Duckworth-Lewis the system sends England to Lord's on Friday 2-1 down with two to play.

At 254-4, needing only 51 off 12.2 overs when a shower swept in, Brook was unbeaten on 110 and the Aussies looked like they had seen a ghost - which, not so long ago, one of them was convinced he had.
