Ben Curry feels the younger players in the England squad can grow up a lot in the upcoming Argentina Tests.

England take on Argentina in two Tests this summer, the first on July 5 in Buenos Aires and the second on July 12 in San Juan, which will be played at an altitude of about 1,500m above sea level.

This is England's first trip to face the Pumas since 2017, when an 18-year-old Curry was included in the squad.

Curry told Radio 5 Live how the experience helped him grow up as a young player in the squad.

"I remember Argentina in 2017, there was barb wire around the stadium, a moat," said Curry. "It was a completely different atmosphere to anything I had ever seen.

"Especially for some of the younger players who haven't done it before, it makes you grow up."

Argentina are a place above England in the world rankings and have beaten France, New Zealand, South Africa and Australia on their home turf over the past 12 months.

The flanker will turn 27 this weekend and is expected to have more leadership role this time around.

Curry has captained his club side Sale this season and played in all five of England's six nations matches this year.

"I am no longer the most nervous person in the room which is quite nice!", Curry added.

"It has come round full circle. I am not that old, but in terms of this group I will probably have to step up a bit with us missing a few people.

"There is definitely enough here to hold the fort down. Whatever the team requires, I will do."
