Harry Brook says aim is to make England the strongest team in the world ahead of 2027 World Cup

Harry Brook is currently captain of the England cricket team, which has been performing well under him. England are on a tour of Australia to play T20 and one-day series. Before the series begins, Brook has made a significant statement that has added to the anticipation around the 2027 World Cup.

The World Cup will be held in 2027, and England appear to have begun preparing for it already. Brook has said his aim is to make England the strongest and most capable team in the world. In his view, the series against Australia will also be important for the upcoming World Cup.

England have played well in some series under Brook. However, the team had some disappointing performances against Pakistan.

On the tour schedule, England will play an important warm-up match against Western Australia in Perth on Saturday. The match will be held at the renovated WACA ground. Speaking about the ground, Brook said the pitch there and the pace of the ball are just like those at a stadium.

England will then play their first one-day match against Australia on November 13. It remains to be seen how England perform in the series, which begins at Optus Stadium on November 13.

Speaking about the team's approach, Brook said: "The result of a match is not always in our hands and victory can never be guaranteed; but the players' hard work on the field and the preparation off it are entirely within our control."

There is a fresh sense of joy and enthusiasm in the England camp at the moment. With the 2027 World Cup in mind, Brook appears to be stressing on making the team stronger and fitter, and England's preparations are evidently under way with the World Cup in view.
