In a pivotal turn of events at the T20 World Cup, Sam Curran has emerged as England's key player, delivering crucial performances that have kept the team's hopes alive. In a recent match against Nepal, Curran showcased his skills by defending 10 runs in the final over, restricting Nepal to just five runs despite the intense pressure from a pro-Nepal crowd at the Wankhede Stadium. Curran stated, "I told Brookie: 'I'm aiming for six yorkers here, and I’ll take the blame if I don’t pull it off.'" His efforts were echoed by captain Harry Brook, who called Curran "unbelievable" and emphasized his calm demeanor under pressure. Curran's heroics continued against Italy, where he bowled a masterful 19th over, dismissing the dangerous Grant Stewart and helping secure a 24-run victory, which was crucial for England's advancement in the tournament. Jamie Overton remarked, "He’s shown for the last two or three years that when the pressure is on, he stands up," highlighting Curran's reliability in critical moments.
