Adam Zampa Biography

The 33-year-old spin bowler was born in Shellharbour, New South Wales, Australia. He started playing cricket as a medium pacer, but due to a rule in Under-14 matches on the limit of overs, Zampa decided to become a leg spinner, getting inspired by Australian legend Shane Warne. In 2012–13 Sheffield Shield, he made his first-class cricket debut for New South Wales and took a total of 5 wickets in 2 innings. During that season, Adam played three first-class matches, taking ten wickets at an average of 23 runs per wicket. This helped him get an offer to play for South Australia in the limited-overs format, replacing another spin legend, Nathan Lyon.
