England thrash Sri Lanka after Harry Brook rejects rest to blast brilliant century

England captain Harry Brook smashed an unbeaten 114 off 49 balls (reaching his century off just 42 balls) as England posted 254 runs in the first T20 against Sri Lanka. Sonny Baker took three wickets as England won by 119 runs, a comprehensive victory that marked Brook's 19th win in 22 completed games as captain. Brook had been offered the chance to rest before the series but chose to play, and his brilliant knock emphatically justified that decision.
