The 8th match of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 between Group B teams - England and Afghanistan - is currently underway at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
Brook, who is regarded as the next big thing in English cricket, has been going through a lean patch in his career. Heading into the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, Brook featured in a three-match ODI series against India and he failed miserably.
After the India series, it was expected that things would get better for Harry Brook as England headed to Pakistan for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, as the pitches in the country generally offer a lot of assistance to the batters.
Brook was dismissed on the 4th ball of the 22nd over by the veteran all-rounder Mohammad Nabi. The spinner deceived Brook with a slower delivery as the batter was early into the punch and hit the ball straight back to Nabi, who completed the catch easily.

What happened in the previous ODI match between Afghanistan and England?
The last ODI match between England and Afghanistan was played in Delhi on October 15 during the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023.
After being invited to bat first, Afghanistan posted a competitive total of 284 before being bowled out in 49.5 overs. Rahmanullah Gurbaz was the top performer with his explosive 80-run innings off 57 balls. The young opener set the tone with his aggressive batting, smashing England’s bowlers all over the park.
Chasing the target, England never had momentum on their side as they lost wickets at regular intervals. Harry Brook (66 off 61) fought a lone battle, but Afghanistan’s bowlers applied relentless pressure and bowled out England for 215 in 40.3 overs.
Mujeeb Ur Rahman (3/51) and Rashid Khan (3/37) spun a web around the English batting unit, while Mohammad Nabi (2/16) delivered an exceptionally economical spell. Also, pacers Naveen-ul-Haq and Fazalhaq Farooqi picked up one wicket each to help Afghanistan register their first-ever triumph over England in ODIs.
