This pair of brothers will play from different countries

Actually, Zimbabwe's experienced batsman Brendan Taylor is out of the tournament due to injury, and Ben Curran has been included in the team in his place. Ben is the brother of England's star all-rounder Sam Curran, who is performing brilliantly for England in this World Cup. Ben Curran has been approved by the ICC Event Technical Committee and he can be seen playing in the tournament soon.

Benn is a top-order batsman who is yet to debut for Zimbabwe in T20 Internationals, but has represented the country in Tests and ODIs. Scored 495 runs in 8 matches in Test. At the same time, 340 runs have been scored in 8 matches in ODI. Recently, in Zimbabwe's domestic T20 tournament, he scored 209 runs in 8 matches, becoming the third highest run-scorer of the tournament with a strike rate of 130.62, due to which Ben Curran has been included in the team as a replacement.

Sam Curran's excellent form continues

On the other hand, Ben Curran's elder brother Sam Curran has been one of the most successful players for England so far in this World Cup. In the thriller match against Nepal, he saved England from an upset by saving 10 runs in the last over and gave them their first victory. At the same time, against West Indies also he scored 43 runs unbeaten on 30 balls, but the team lost. Sam and Ben have another brother named Tom Curran, who also plays international cricket for England.
