"He's been awesome in the Hundred. We've seen him bowl at some of the best batters in the world and he had them on toast, so it's been really good to see. He bowls at high pace and he can swing it both ways with exceptional death skills as well. To have him in the team and for him to be opening up tomorrow is awesome. I think there's quite a lot of people excited to see where he goes," said Brook.
"There have been a few moments. The spells he bowled to Williamson and Warner and then Smith and Bairstow, all four are world-class batters in the shorter format and he was all over them. He bowled with high pace and high skill. He was awesome to watch this year and everyone was talking about him," he added.

The three-game ODI series will be played between September 2 to 7, after which the two sides will lock horns in a three-game T20I contest between September 10 to 14.
