After his grandmother Pauline fell unwell and eventually passed away, the 25-year-old chose not to play in the Indian Premier League and to withdraw from the Test series in India.
On Friday, April 5, the White Rose take on Leicestershire at Headingley to begin the new season.
Joe Root, another batter from England, might also play in their opening contests.
Head coach Ottis Gibson stated on the club website, “I suspect Brooky will be available to us for the first few games, including Leicestershire, now that he isn’t going to the IPL.”
“Rooty will also be available for some games during that early period, and he enjoys playing for us.”
It would be amazing if those two played for us.”
Since the December fifth T20 in the West Indies, Brook has not participated in any competitive cricket matches.
The next encounter for England is a four-match Twenty20 series against Pakistan, which starts at home on May 22. On June 4, Jos Buttler’s team will begin their defense of the Twenty20 World Cup in the Caribbean.
Yorkshire, who placed seventh out of eight teams in the previous season, is attempting to return to Division One of the County Championship.
