T20 World Cup: England all-rounder Sam Curran has reiterated his comfort with a fluid role in the national side, a trait that has become increasingly valuable as the team builds momentum ahead of the T20 World Cup. Curran’s adaptability was a defining feature of England’s recent 3–0 T20I series sweep over Sri Lanka, where his contributions with both bat and ball proved decisive across varying conditions.
The highlight of the series came in the third and final T20I, when Curran struck a composed 58 off 48 deliveries to help England post a competitive total of 128. The innings laid the foundation for a successful defence and earned him the Player of the Match award. His impact, however, was not limited to one game. In the second T20I, Curran chipped in with an unbeaten 20, steering England home in a tricky chase of 168 alongside Tom Banton. Earlier in the series, he had already made his presence felt by claiming a hat-trick in the opening match.
Speaking after the series, Curran acknowledged the evolving nature of his responsibilities within the side and expressed contentment with the lack of a fixed role. “I know my role with the ball is going to be quite flexible, and I'm pretty happy with that.”
