England T20I: England have recalled all-rounder Sam Curran for their upcoming T20I series against South Africa and Ireland, while giving Ben Duckett an additional week of rest after his dramatic dip in form.

Curran, who has not played for England in any format this year or under coach Brendon McCullum, returns on the back of prolific domestic performances. Across 24 appearances in the T20 Blast and the Hundred this summer, he scored 603 runs at a strike rate of 154.21 and claimed 33 wickets, making him one of the standout performers.

He has been added to squads for all six fixtures against South Africa and Ireland.
