Australian player Adam Zampa is looking forward to his stint at the Royal Challengers Bangalore at IPL 2020, where he would work closely with Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, two players he finds exciting to watch. Zampa, who currently plays for the ODIs in England, said he was looking forward to bowling with teammate Yuzvendra Chahal and hopes the two can tease each other.

I have a very good opportunity getting closer to the IPL where I hope to be able to play with Chahal at RCB. I could get a chance to go bowling in the last overs, in case the team struggles, for example, ”Zampa said in a video on ESPNcricinfo.

“It will be good to work with Chahal. We have similar trades, but we can also learn a little from each other. Then there are the obvious ones: players like Virat and AB de Villiers. Just watching them, the way they train and do it, watching them hit, it’s very exciting. “

RCB brought in Zampa as a replacement for Australia’s fast pitcher Kane Richardson. The 29-year-old, who was bought by Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 4 crore at the IPL auction last December, had opted out of the tournament to be with his wife at the birth of their first child. Zampa joins players like Chahal, Washington Sundar, Moeen Ali and Pawan Negi, strengthening the team’s spin attack.
