England all-rounder Tom Curran has reacted to the claim that he cried like a child during the India-Pakistan conflict. Curran, who is playing for Lahore Qalandars in the PSL, expressed relief that the PSL resumed after a brief pause, however, he denied the claims made by Rishad Hossain.

"I'm glad to see things resuming, and I pray for continued peace between two very special countries," Curran wrote on Instagram.

"Btw promise, I didn't cry; was ready (laughing emoji)," he added.

Earlier, Rishad revealed that the India-Pakistan tension scared the overseas stars. Rishad also claimed that New Zealand all-rounder Daryl Mitchell said he would never return to the country.

"He (Tom Curran) went to the airport but heard that the airport was closed. Then he started crying like a little child, that it took two or three people to handle him," Rishad told Cricbuzz.

Rishad, however, apologised for the remark and said that his comments were blown out of proportion.

"I'm aware that a recent comment I made has caused confusion and has unfortunately been misrepresented in the media, creating a false perception. The comment was made during a brief interview with Bangladeshi journalists while I was in transit at Dubai Airport. It lacked full context and unintentionally overstated the emotions involved," Rishad said in a statement.

Rishad also revealed that he has issued an unconditional apology to Daryl Mitchell and Tom Curran.

"I sincerely regret any misunderstanding it may have caused. I've offered an unconditional apology to Daryl Mitchell and Tom Curran. I hold deep respect for my fellow teammates and truly value the Qalandars brotherhood, where we always stand by one another, no matter what. I look forward to rejoining my team when the Pakistan Super League resumes," he added

After the brief pause, the PSL resumed on May 17 after tensions between India and Pakistan eased out following an agreement.
