Harry Brook met the sweet spot of the bat as the ball sailed over the roof at Headingley in Leeds.

Northern Superchargers batter Harry Brook smashed a massive six against Manchester Originals in The Hundred at Headingley in Leeds on Sunday, August 13. The right-handed batter hit the ball to the top of the roof that went out of the ground.

The incident took place off the 51st delivery of the Superchargers’ innings, bowled by Usama Mir, who produced a flighted delivery outside off-stump. Brook advanced down to the pitch of the ball and lofted it down the ground that went over the sightscreen, leaving everyone in awe. The commentators confirmed that the ball was lost.

Mir, though, fought back to dismiss Brook with a slower delivery outside off stump later in the over. The batter was caught out at long-off as it hit the toe end of the bat.

Brook departed for just 20 runs off 14 balls, including the solitary six and two boundaries.
