Australia leg-spinner Adam Zampa has tested positive for Covid-19, hours ahead of their T20 World Cup 2022 Super 12 match against Sri Lanka in Perth. Zampa, it emerged on Tuesday, returned a positive test but is only showcasing mild symptoms, according to a team spokesman.

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.

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.

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.
