Ashes 2017: Surrey pacer Tom Curran selected for Test squad as replacement for injured Steven Finn

Firstpost  

London: Surrey seamer Tom Curran was added to England’s Ashes squad on Tuesday after Steven Finn was ruled out of the tour of Australia with a knee injury. AFP A son of the late Zimbabwe all-rounder Kevin Curran, Tom has played a single one-day international and three Twenty20 internationals but is yet to make his Test debut. The Middlesex quick was dropped midway through England’s victorious Ashes campaign of 2010/11 and left the previous 2013/14 trip under a cloud when then limited-overs coach Ashley Giles declared him “un-selectable”. England coach Trevor Bayliss told reporters in Adelaide on Tuesday, “He had an injection a couple of days ago which they thought would help.” But the ECB statement confirming Finn was out of the tour said he would “return to the UK in the next 48 hours where he will meet a knee specialist to ascertain whether he will have an operation”.
