Speaking of the video, Tom Curran was seen teaching the young kid how to bowl a slower delivery like him. Curran is known for his variations while bowling, especially with his back-of-the-hand slow deliveries. So, he was teaching that kid how to perform that ball without changing his natural bowling actions.

Speaking about Tom Curran, he last played for England on 18 July 2021 at Leeds. It was a T20I match against Pakistan. Since then, he has failed to make a comeback for England across any format of the game. He also failed to get a contract for the upcoming edition of the Indian T20 League for any franchise.

Speaking about the last match of Desert Vipers, they took on Gulf Giants on 22 January in Dubai. They batted first and scored 195 runs for four wickets in 20 overs. Alex Hales was the highest scorer with 99 runs off 57 balls, including 10 fours and five sixes. But, in reply, they failed to defend the total.
