Sam Curran insists his goal is to play 'in ALL three formats for England' and hopes his commitment to the IPL doesn't see him miss home New Zealand Test series in June

Sam Curran hopes his Indian Premier League commitments do not see him miss the start of England's Test summer.

Curran has signed up for the Chennai Super Kings for a second successive year, but the 2021 IPL schedule puts him and the likes of Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler and Jofra Archer at risk of missing the first Test of the summer.

The IPL play-offs take place from May 25-28 with the final set for May 30, while the start of England's two-match series against New Zealand begins at Lord's on June 2.
