Australian bowler badly beaten, six-year-old record destroyed
Australia vs West Indies T20I Match Adam Zampa: Many records were set and broken in the third T20 International match between Australia and the West Indies in Perth. While on the one hand the West Indies batsmen scored a lot of runs, on the other hand the Australian bowlers also gave free runs. What happened to an Australian bowler in today’s game had never happened to a bowler from this team before in the history of T20 International cricket.
Adam Zampa scored 65 runs in four overs
Andre Russell and Sherfane Rutherford defeated Australian Adam Zampa in a way they will likely never forget. Before today, before this game, an Australian bowler had scored 64 runs bowling four overs in this format of cricket. He was Andrew Toy. Who had scored so many runs against New Zealand in 2018. After that, in 2023, Aaron Hardy also gave away 64 runs against India in four overs. But now Adam Zampa has beaten both of them to the punch. Adam Zampa completed his quota of four overs and gave away 65 runs. This means that Zampa is now the bowler who has scored the most runs for Australia in a T20 International match. In this match he only managed one success.
Record hit by Andre Russell and Sherfane Rutherford
West Indies’ opening batsmen were out early. It seemed like the Australian team was preventing the West Indies from scoring big. After the fall of 5 wickets for just 79 runs, there was such a storm from Andre Russell and Sherfane Rutherford that no Kangaroo bowler could save himself. Although Adam Zampa scored 65 runs, the condition of the other bowlers was also not good. Spencer Johnson scored 49 runs in four overs. This means he missed the half-century by just one run.
West Indies scored 220 runs
Speaking of the game, after losing 5 wickets for 79 runs, Andre Russell and Sherfane Rutherford together created a partnership of more than 100 runs and took the team’s score to over 200. Sherfane Rutherford played an innings of 67 runs in 40 balls. During this time he hit five fours and five sixes. If we talk about Andre Russell, he scored 71 runs in just 29 balls.
