As the scrutiny about his actions on the night of October 31 in Wellington continues, England white-ball captain Harry Brook has admitted it has "not been a very nice time", and at times, "pretty horrendous".

‘Not been easy’: England captain spills on ‘horrendous’ fallout from nightclub altercation

England white-ball captain Harry Brook has confessed the fallout from his nightclub altercation has been “horrendous”, hoping to put the ordeal behind him after the T20 World Cup.

Last month, it was revealed that Brook had been sanctioned for an altercation with a nightclub bouncer the evening before an ODI match against New Zealand in Wellington.

Later, the 26-year-old copped some backlash after he celebrated an ODI century in Colombo with the beer‑smash gesture that was popularised by WWE star ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin.

England coach Brendon McCullum has since hit back at accusations of a drinking culture within the national side, labelling the criticism of his team a “pile-on”, while Brook admitted the ongoing media scrutiny has been “pretty horrendous”.

Brook's England begin their T20 World Cup campaign against Nepal in Mumbai on Sunday, but their build-up has been overshadowed by Brook's situation.

It emerged in early January the 26-year-old had been "clocked" by a nightclub bouncer the night before captaining England against New Zealand in November, and last week Brook admitted he lied to the media when denying other players were present.
