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.

During the net session on Tuesday, Mitchell Starc was hit on his knee by a straight drive during his follow-through. The pacer limped off the field but without any assistance. However, he bowled and batted the next day and is expected to feature in his team's clash against Sri Lanka on Thursday.

Australia opening batsman David Warner has downplayed the concerns on his batting form saying that he has hardly played cricket in recent times. Warner had a horrible time with the bat in the recently concluded IPL 2021 and his poor form continued against South Africa as he got out for 14 runs.
