England were crushed by Australia in a World Cup match in Perth on November 13, 2026, and Harry Brook said 'World Cup is the bigger picture' after the defeat.
Australia's pace attack, on home soil in Perth, shone as Mahli Beardman took six wickets to help bowl England out for 131. Australia chased the target in 23.3 overs, with Mitchell Marsh scoring a brisk 50. Brook noted England's struggle to adapt to the challenging conditions.
