Matthew Mott has suggested Harry Brook has forced his way into England's T20 World Cup reckoning.
England were missing several of their big hitters for their tour of Pakistan but emerged victorious 4-3 with Brook among those to come in and impress.
He came away as England's top run scorer from the Tour and Mott has hinted that he has forced his way in for the campaign that gets underway against Afghanistan in Perth on October 22.
“We’ve looked at that first XI quite a bit…we’re pretty close. There’s always a bit of tinkering, form comes into it,” Mott told Sky Sports.
"Harry Brook has had some really good hit outs and done well. He’s looked really composed out there and seems to just pick the right times to go for his boundaries.
“There’s been a lot of moving parts in this tour but we’ll welcome back some world class players and we hit the shores of Australia in a couple of days.”
Ben Stokes and Chris Jordan are among those set to join up with the squad in Australia later this week while Jos Buttler will return after sitting out the recent Tour with injury.

Buttler will reclaim the captaincy from Moeen Ali for the World Cup warm-up games against Australia, and will also return to wicket keeper.
Mott added: "With Mo and Stokes in the field, he can offload a little but he feels it’s the best view for him on the ground and the one he’s most accustomed to.”
England will also take on Australia and New Zealand in Group 1, as well as two qualifiers from the first round which gets underway on October 16.
