A tall, lightning quick fast bowler, Henry James Hamilton Brookes was born in Solihull - a town in the West Midlands of England - and has impressive credentials against his name at the age of 18. A product of Edgbaston system, Brookes represented England Under-19s before bagging a bundle of wickets for the 2nd XIs, and eventually debuting for his senior side in County Championship in 2017. The following year, he made his Royal London debut and nearly carried Warwickshire into the semis with a bustling spell of 3/57 against Worcestershire. Generally pacy, Brookes has a decent stock of slower ball variations and can extract extra bounce with his height. Warwickshire and England cricket will be keeping a close eye on Brookes' progress as he aims to get better with each passing day.
