ODI World Cup: Ben Curran, the brother of England men’s players Sam and Tom, has earned his maiden Zimbabwe call-up for their upcoming ODI series against Afghanistan. Apart from him, Zimbabwe have also handed a maiden call-up to young left-arm pacer Newman Nyamhuri, who’s also named in T20I squad.

Curran, who played for Northamptonshire between 2018 and 2022, receives his maiden call-up after being the leading run-scorer in Zimbabwe's 50-over and red-ball domestic competitions.

He is the second son of Kevin Curran, who played 11 ODIs for Zimbabwe between 1983 and 1987, before being their head coach from 2005 to 2007. His brothers Tom and Sam are capped across all three formats for England.
