Brook is ignoring social media to focus on cricket:-
Brook is not very active on social media at the moment and has decided to ignore things online to focus on sports.
According to BBC Sport, Brook said: “I was stupid and I said something childish in an interview, which I regret a bit. In India there is not much to do when you are sitting in your hotel room. In such a situation, you start scrolling through Instagram or Twitter or anything and some things come up which you do not want to see. I thought it would be better to stay away from it. I still have Instagram and Twitter but thankfully I have someone handling it.
