England batsman Harry Brook finally arrived well and truly in the IPL 2023 as he smashed a thunderous century against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in what was his fourth match for the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).

In his first three knocks, Harry Brook had recorded scores of 13, 3, and 13. Consequently, this led to doubts about whether he’d succeed in the IPL and in Indian conditions.

However, after his initial struggle in the tournament, mostly where spinners got to him, Harry Brook stepped up to the stage and plundered 100 runs off 55 balls against KKR, who boast of perhaps the strongest spin attack of the tournament with the trio of Sunil Narine, Varun Chakravarthy, and Suyash Sharma – the same trio that had downed 9 RCB wickets in the last match here at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

Harry Brook was smart, though, in knowing his weaknesses and the opposition’s strengths. While he was in murderous touch against the pacers, when playing the spinners, the right-hander toned down his aggression and smartly rotated the strike. Attack on the spinners came from the other end, from skipper Aiden Markram and left-hander Abhishek Sharma, who batted at number 5.

Where against pacers, Harry Brook ransacked 66 runs off 26 balls, to spinners, he took 34 runs off 29 balls

This is where his smartness and game awareness of self and opposition shone brightly. Brook’s sensational century took SRH’s total to 228.

Brook’s terrific hundred also led to a spate of memes on Twitter.

Here are some of the funnies memes:

During the mid-innings break, Brook said: “I’ve had a bit of trouble with spin, but I wanted to use the powerplay to my advantage. So middle overs wanted to rotate strike and let the other boys do the hitting. It is a belter of a pitch, we need to bowl our lengths rightly and take wickets. We still got a job to do. My girlfriend is here but the rest of my family have just left, I’m sure they’ll all be very happy for me.”
