    Spinner Adam Zampa's rejecting any suggestion the Australia men's cricket team don't value the T20 format of the game

    Spinner Adam Zampa's rejecting any suggestion the Australia men's cricket team don't value the T20 format of the game


    The 2021 champions have beaten Oman by nine wickets in the final game of the group stages in Pallekele - but their flights home were already booked after earlier losses to Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka.

    Zampa says the idea Australia don't value T20s is totally false - adding the coaches and staff put more time into white ball cricket because they are the more competitive formats.

    The Super Eight stage gets underway early tomorrow morning - New Zealand playing Pakistan in game one in Colombo from 2.30.
