Zampa, it emerged on Tuesday, returned a positive test but is only showcasing mild symptoms, according to a team spokesman. <\/p>\n<p>The Australian team management had maintained that Adam Zampa was available for selection for the big-ticket match against the Asia Cup champions, but he is in doubt after having tested positive for Covid-19, according to cricket.com.au. <\/p>\n<p>If Adam Zampa does not play on Tuesday for Australia, left-arm spinner Ashton Agar is set to take his place in the XI unless Aaron Finch decides to opt for a pace-heavy attack in Perth. <\/p>\n<p><strong>T20 World Cup 2022: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatoday.in\/sports\/t20-world-cup-2022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Full Coverage<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatoday.in\/live-score\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Points Table<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>However, the ICC rules for T20 World Cup 2022 do not prevent players with Covid-19 to play matches. Only on Sunday, Ireland cricketer George Dockrell played against Sri Lanka despite having been deemed potentially Covid-19 positive.<\/p>\n<p>Zampa remains a vital cog to Australia&#8217;s plans as the leg-spinner has been in fine form. It might be a blow for the defending champions who are heading into the contest against Sri Lanka after having been hammered by New Zealand in their Super 12 opener by 89 runs. <\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Sri Lanka are likely to welcome back their in-form opener Pathum Nissanka, who missed their opening match in the Super 12 against Ireland due to a an injury concern. <\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-99cc083358cc2e2d Story_authors__container__i9YKo\">\n<div class=\"jsx-99cc083358cc2e2d Story_published__on___89yu\">\n<p>Published On: <\/p>\n<p>Oct 25, 2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[ad_2]\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatoday.in\/sports\/cricket\/story\/t20-world-cup-adam-zampa-covid-19-positive-australia-vs-sri-lanka-perth-2289208-2022-10-25?utm_source=rss\">News From This Website <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] T20 World Cup 2022: Leg-spinner &#8230; <a class=\"Rmore tbutton small\" href=\"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/?p=5022\"><span>Read More \u00bb <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5023,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"http:\/\/channpardesi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/istockphoto-1182477852-612x612-1.jpeg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[262],"tags":[11,610,3061,3005,3060,3066,759,53,3062,3065,3059,3064,3067,82,3063],"class_list":["post-5022","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-english-news","tag-adam","tag-ahead","tag-australia","tag-covid19","tag-cup","tag-lanka","tag-october","tag-positive","tag-spinner","tag-sri","tag-t20","tag-tests","tag-tie","tag-world","tag-zampa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5022"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5022"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5022\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5023"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5022"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5022"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/channpardesi.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5022"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
