He’s had a spin on the lucrative franchise circuit, but for Adam Zampa it will never compare to the “buzz” of playing in big tournaments for Australia.

If franchise Twenty20 cricket has taken over the world, exemplified by the overnight Indian Premier League final, it has not stolen the heart of Australia’s leg-spinner Adam Zampa.

“There’s always a lot of chat about ‘can you play franchise cricket all year round’ and it was something I had thought about – at what age do I get through to try to then play a bit of franchise cricket,” Zampa told this masthead. “But after 2023 and winning the World Cup and all that, and having a young family now as well, I’ve realised I want to play cricket for as long as I can, and instead of trying to play for nine or 10 months of the year, it’s play for six or seven.

“ is big enough for it to be enough work, but small enough for the work around here to feel like it’s a bit of a hobby. Working on the gardens, we’re currently building a house, working on my body as well, got a gym at home now, and I feel like that’s made a bit of a difference.”
