In recent years, England has fundamentally altered the way that white-ball cricket is played. The Three Lions made the decision to play an aggressive style of cricket in the white-ball format, and it eventually became a part of their system under the capable guidance of Eoin Morgan. Jos Buttler continued the concept after Morgan retired, and as a result, they are once again among the favorites to win the 2018 ODI World Cup, which is set to start on October 5.
Sam Curran, an all-rounder for England, said that the team will continue to play with a positive attitude since captain Buttler prefers it when discussing strategy. The stumper-batter seeks to push the team hard and break boundaries in order to put the opponent under pressure, the cricketer continued.
“Jos wants our squad to attack with flair; he’d rather be bowled out for a lower total, demonstrating good will, than to plod along to a secure total. He constantly aspires to push the envelope, push teams, and put them under a lot of strain. People naturally want to see fours, sixes, and wickets in a game.
“You can observe how England is currently playing Test cricket since Ben Stokes took over as captain. Players are encouraged to attack continuously. It’s about breaking traditions in a way to keep the game going forward, according to Sam Curran, who spoke to GQ magazine. “No team has really done that before and they’ve caught others off guard,” Curran said.

In spite of last year’s announcement of his retirement from ODI cricket, Ben Stokes has since made a comeback in time for the 2023 World Cup. Speaking of the same, Curran said it’s a big deal for the squad because he has a track record of winning games.
It’s enormous. He is the man right now. He generally seems to be that guy all the time. He is the one who, looking back on the previous World Cup, brought them so near. He retired, but I was certain that he would have been eager to return if his physique had permitted it. He’s a huge player to have, and his talent and presence rank among the finest in the world, according to Curran.
