Sam Curran Insists England Are ‘Not Fearing Anything’ when They Take on India
Sam Curran said England aims to replicate their Adelaide semifinal performance and use IPL experience to overcome home crowd advantage at Wankhede Stadium.
- With the semi two days away, Curran told reporters at Wankhede Stadium that England are focused on the March 5 match and aim to replicate their Adelaide semi to reach the final.
- Experience-first: players' time in India and the IPL has helped England players adapt well to subcontinental conditions, Curran said, ahead of the third consecutive India vs England semifinal series on Thursday.
- Pitch data shows Wankhede central pitch is spin-friendly with spinners taking 14 wickets at 7.19 economy, and Jos Buttler, England batter and captain, spent two hours Tuesday on focused batting drills despite mixed form.
- Curran framed the immediate objective as wanting to win and reach another World Cup final, emphasizing England's momentum after three straight Super Eights wins despite inconsistent performances.
- Amid security and travel concerns, Curran said he was "extremely sorry for everyone who's been affected" by the ongoing war in West Asia but players remain focused on Thursday night, with toss and dew unlikely to influence the match.
