After just hours, he held his nerve in one of his most dramatic finishes T20 World Cup 2026England comprehensively Sam Curran found a very different release. On Sunday night, February 8, the 27-year-old was spotted driving a Lamborghini along the bright streets of Mumbai with her fiancé. Isabella Grace Symonds-Willmott by his side – an image that quickly went viral and perfectly captured the breath after the high-wire action at the Wankhede.
A heart-stopper at the Wankhede
The carefree cruise was in stark contrast to Curran’s survival pot at the Wankhede Stadium. England’s tournament opener against Nepal turned into a heart-stopper as the underdogs chased down a tough target with fearless determination, booed on by a partisan crowd. England’s 184/7 looked solid on paper, but Nepal’s reply was full of conviction, timing and guts – making the night a test of temperament.
Nepal refused to blink. Their batsmen fed off the energy in the stands, forcing England into the defensive areas ahead of schedule and keeping the rate of demand in check. With every boundary, the buzz grew and as the final reached, it got impossibly unsettlingly close. 10 runs needed from six balls, the sets were ready to bat and the date was within touching distance.
“Ice-Cold” finale from Sam Curran
The England captain with the game on the line Harry Brooke dropped the ball to Kerran – and the left-back taught a lesson in nerve and nuance. He mixed the yorkers with well-disguised slower balls, kept the ball away from the arc and denied boundaries at the death. Nepal managed just five runs from the over. England escaped with four and Nepal 180/6. It wasn’t brilliant; it was clinical. And in six balls it changed the mood of England’s campaign.

After the adrenaline subsided and the roar of the Wankhede slowly faded into memory, Curran swapped his spikes and matching intensity for effortless style. Videos circulating on social media platforms showed the Brit in an all-round lighthearted mood, relaxed behind the wheel as he cruised Mumbai’s iconic Marine Road.
With Isabella sitting next to him, the moment felt intimate yet celebratory—a far cry from the pressure of finals. The city’s glittering skyline and streetlights sparkled off the supercar’s polished paint, a cinematic backdrop that perfectly captured the calm after the storm and a rare glimpse of how elite athletes rest after carrying the weight of a nation on their shoulders.
