Sam Curran, the youngest of the Curran brothers, has expressed heartfelt congratulations to his older sibling Ben Curran on receiving his first national call-up to represent Zimbabwe in the upcoming ODI series against Afghanistan.

The Curran family is no stranger to cricketing accolades. Sam and Tom Curran have made their marks on the international stage, with Sam representing England in 117 matches across all formats, accumulating 1,768 runs and taking 134 wickets. Tom, the eldest brother, has also made notable contributions with 60 matches played, scoring 433 runs and capturing 65 wickets. Their father, Kevin Curran, was a former Zimbabwe international cricketer who played 11 ODIs and later served as the national team’s coach from 2005 to 2007. Tragically, Kevin passed away in 2012, but his legacy continues to inspire his sons.

Sam’s took to X and wrote, “Such special news, couldn’t be happier for you BC. Someone will be looking down with a huge smile on their face today,” likely a reference to their late father. This sentiment encapsulates the pride and emotional weight that comes with representing their father’s homeland.
