News India Live, Digital Desk: England cricket team’s star all-rounder Sam Curran has broken his silence and made a big revelation. Curran told that when he was dropped from the team, instead of sitting quietly, he directly faced head coach Brendon McCullum. Karan, who had lost his place in the ‘Baseball’ era, asked sharp questions to the coach, after which there was a long discussion between the two. This matter is now going viral on social media, because instead of accepting defeat, Karan looked the coach in the eyes and sought answers.

‘I was very disappointed and wanted answers’

Sam Curran recently admitted in an interview that being out of the team was no less than a big shock for him. He said, “When you find out that you are not a part of the playing eleven, it feels bad. But I decided that I would talk to Brendon (McCullum) directly. I wanted to know where my bowling and batting were lacking and what the team expected from me.” This outspoken style of Karan surprised even coach McCullum.

McCullum’s ‘baseball’ mantra and Curran’s challenge

To fit into the aggressive style of baseball played by the England Test team, players have to play the role of ‘match winner’ at all times. Sam Curran said that his conversation with coach McCullum was very positive. The coach told him in clear words that to return to international cricket, he would have to further improve his skills. “Brendan told me that the door is never closed, but I have to prove my worth in domestic cricket,” Curran said.

Sam Curran is desperate to make a comeback

Sam Curran, who was the ‘Player of the Tournament’ of the T20 World Cup 2022, has been seen losing his rhythm for some time. But this direct conversation with the coach has rekindled his confidence. Karan is now busy preparing to regain his place in the national team through county cricket and the upcoming T20 series. He made it clear that he does not want to remain a player of only one format, but wants to win matches for England in all three formats.

Will Karan’s honesty pay off?

Cricket experts believe that Karan going to the coach and asking for clarity is a good sign for his career. Often players get disappointed after being left out of the team, but Karan has chosen the path of working on his shortcomings by taking feedback. Now it remains to be seen whether McCullum reposes confidence in this young all-rounder in the upcoming series or not.
