Never Expected I'd Play This Much For Australia, Says Zampa On 100 ODIs Milestone
T20 World Cup: Australia’s upcoming ODI series opener against England at Trent Bridge on September 19 will also mark Adam Zampa’s 100th appearance in the 50-over format. On the verge of reaching this milestone, Zampa said he never anticipated playing these number of matches for his country in ODIs.
Zampa will become the 32nd Australia men’s player to play 100 ODIs. He becomes just the third specialist spinner to achieve the landmark for Australia after Shane Warne and Brag Hogg. Zampa’s wife Harriet, son Eugene and parents Darren and Alison will be in attendance at Trent Bridge to see the leg-spinner reach this landmark.
"I'm really proud to get to 100 ODIs, I never expected that I'd play this much for Australia. When you look at the amount of games that people play in ODI cricket these days, not that many get to 100, especially compared to guys in the past; in the 1990s and early 2000s there was definitely a lot more ODI cricket and no T20s. I'm getting close to 200 internationals altogether (191), so I never expected to play this much, that's for sure," said Zampa to cricket.com.au.
