Keeping Sam Curran out of the game isn't impossible, as the player shows his skills wherever he goes. Be it international games or league matches, Curran is everywhere. In the ongoing The Hundred Men's Competition 2024, the star England all-rounder claimed a hattrick at the Lord's Stadium, London, against the London Spirit. He dismissed Matt Critchley, Liam Dawson, and Andre Russell. The Oval Invincibles won by 32 runs thanks to Curran's magnificent bowling.
Curran's spell was brilliant as he claimed a 5-wicket haul and helped his team win by such a huge margin. It was purely his day, as he also scored 51 runs while batting in the first innings.

"Have had a few battles with Russell over the years. Thankfully he edged it. But most importantly we got the win. The wicket was fractionally slow. We all complemented each other really well. When Hetmyer and Russell were there, and Dan was playing really well. It's never over with those kinds of players," said Sam Curran at the post-match presentation.
