Aaron Finch was in all praises for Adam Zampa, whose 2/12 from four overs set up Australia’s comfortable seven-wicket win over Sri Lanka in Dubai on Thursday. It was Australia’s second win at the T20 World Cup 2021, after they had inched past South Africa in a last-over thriller last week.

Australia bowlers put on an all-round show to limit Sri Lanka to 154/6, before David Warner led the chase with a sparkling 42-ball 65 to set up a comfortable seven-wicket win. It was Australia’s second win at the T20 World Cup 2021, after they had inched past South Africa in a thriller last week.

David Warner said that he’s eyeing a fresh start ahead of IPL 2022, and confirmed that he’ll put his name for the mega auctions. Warner, who had led the Sunrisers Hyderabad to their only IPL triumph, in 2016, was sacked as captain and was later dropped from the playing XI during the IPL 2021.
