He may look like he should still be playing for the colts but after bursting on to the Test scene in the summer England’s tyro has pocketed a lucrative IPL contract to crown his 2018
Last year my kids went to do some holiday cricket training at Surrey’s practice ground at New Malden. When they came back I asked my wife if she’d found the right place, and she said, oh yeah, I got a bit lost but there was a very nice boy who was having his foot massaged and I asked him where to go and he got up and showed us the right place, we had a bit of a chat he was lovely, very nice, very polite.
While she was saying this I could see over her shoulder my two young sons gripped with mute horror, wincing with the kind of shock, mortification and social anxiety only a well-meaning parent can inflict. Mum, the older one said finally. That wasn’t a very nice polite boy. That was SAM CURRAN.
