The England pacer Tom Curran has committed his long-term future to the Sydney Sixers after signing a new three-year contract that promises to keep him at the Australian shores for the next three seasons.

The 23-year-old has played a key role in helping the franchise reach in the BBLI08 Semi-Finals, taking 20 wickets including figures of 3/16 against Brisbane Heat.

Curran’s impressive batting has also been hugely entertaining for the supporters to watch, scoring 185 runs this summer.

Really happy to commit to another 3 years with the Sixers. I feel like it’s a great place for me to continue to improve as a cricketer and hopefully I can help win trophies with a group of great men. See you all next year and good luck for the finals in a few days 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 https://t.co/Dn1Dq1StPK
