Men’s ODI WC: Maxwell Will Have To Bowl Very Well If Indian Batters Handle Zampa Well, Says Ian Chappell
ODI World Cup: Former Australia captain Ian Chappell believes Glenn Maxwell will have to bowl very well in the Men’s ODI World Cup final happening at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday if the Indian batters are able to handle leg-spinner Adam Zampa well.
Zampa enters Sunday’s final as the second-highest wicket-taker of the tournament, picking 22 scalps at an average of 21.40 and economy rate of 5.47. On the other hand, Maxwell’s economy rate has been 4.72, and even took a stunning 4-40 against India at Rajkot in September.
"The Indians play spin pretty well and I think if they play sensibly they'll probably handle Zampa pretty well, which means that Maxwell's going to have to bowl really well. I think Maxwell's bowling has been very good so far, but he's got to maintain that level against India. I think if the Indians get on top of Zampa, that'll mean that Maxwell's going to have to bowl really well," said Chappell to Wide World of Sports.
