Star voltage is 1 / 1.732, or 0.577 delta voltage. (1.732 is the square root of 3.) It follows, then, that star current is 0.577 delta current.

Not asked, but answered for completeness, star power is 0.5772, or 0.3333 delta power. This is why large motors use a star-delta start sequence - to minimize startup thermal stress.
