Maxwell praises Zampa, confident of better performances in upcoming matches

Australia all-rounder Glenn Maxwell, praised Adam Zampa’s performance against Bangladesh in tough playing conditions at Trent Bridge and is hopeful that the leg-spinner will keep taking more wickets at the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2019.
Wrist spinners have been the go-to bowlers for captains in limited overs cricket for the last few years. However, they have had mixed fortunes in the first three weeks of this World Cup. While Imran Tahir, Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav have made their presence felt, Rashid Khan, the top ranked spinner in the MRF Tyres ICC ODI Rankings for Bowlers, went for 110 runs in nine overs against England on Tuesday.
Zampa, who finished with figures of 1/68 from nine overs against Bangladesh, seems to have impressed his fellow teammate Maxwell.
“I thought today was the best he’s bowled in a while,” Maxwell said of Zampa. “At other times he’s bowled not as well but still taken wickets. That’s always been his challenge. I’m pretty close to him in the field as well and talking to him and making sure he’s still doing his thing. I thought today he did really well. Unfortunately, [there were a] couple of big hits off his good balls, which you expect as a spinner. It cost him towards the end of his spell.”
