Sam Curran Satisfied With His Flexible Responsibilities With the Ball Ahead of the T20 World Cup

Sam Curran is confident that he can perform well for England in the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2026. He fully understands his role in the team, which basically demands flexibility in both batting and bowling. Keeping that in view, he is trying to repay the faith by adjusting his game, just like he did in the 3rd T20I against Sri Lanka.  

"It's just trying to be flexible for the team, we've got loads of different options. I know my role with the ball is going to be quite flexible and I'm pretty happy with that.” said Sam Curran after the match.

He further added that his focus is on delivering in at least one department of the game so that it can have a positive impact on the team.

"Just hoping that when I don't bowl well, I can bat well and when I don't bat well, I can bowl well. I guess that's my logic. I know this World Cup I'm going to play a role with different conditions, different roles. And I'm very open to that as long as the team feels settled and the guys are confident, which [is why] I think this series was fantastic." said Sam Curran.

He then praised the performance of the team, saying that the recent success against Sri Lanka has given them plenty of confidence ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026.

"I think to win away from home 3-0, I think that's the lowest score we've defended as well, which is pretty, pretty cool to say. I think those wins are always fun when you see the ball turning big. I thought our spinners can take huge confidence from that. All four of them bowled exceptionally well.” said Sam Curran.

"And yeah, I guess we might come across conditions like that over the next couple of weeks. And I think we've seen some good wickets, we've seen some turning wickets, so great preparation and a fantastic win." added Sam Curran.
