London, Jul 3 (IANS): Stand-in England coach Graham Thorpe feels that all-rounder Sam Curran s stint with the Indian Premier League (IPL) side Chennai Super Kings (CSK) is the reason behind the 23-year-old making an impact for his country of late.
The left-arm pace bowler removed the entire Sri Lankan top- and middle-order in the second One-day International on July 1, returning figures of 5/48 as England won by eight wickets with seven overs to spare. I think it s (IPL) helped him enormously. Every environment Sam has gone into, he s shown that ability to compete and an ability to find a way of putting performances in. From that perspective, playing in the IPL has put him in high-pressured situations and pushed him, the former cricketer told ESPNcricinfo on Friday.
