# Cricket: England’s Harry Brook is facing a possible two-year ban from the Indian Premier League after withdrawing from this year’s tournament. This is the second consecutive year that he has pulled out before the start of the competition. The 26-year-old, who was signed by Delhi Capitals last year, says he needs time to recharge after the busiest period in his career to date. Brook is considered a frontrunner to replace Jos Buttler as England’s white-ball captain following their group-stage elimination at the Champions Trophy.
