RR vs LSG: Why is Adam Zampa Not Playing Today’s IPL Match?

After having won the toss and opting to bowl first, the Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson stated that leg-spinner Adam Zampa has not been included in the RR playing XI for this RR vs LSG IPL 2023 match on Wednesday. Incidentally, this only seems to be a tactical change as the Rajasthan Royals have brought back pace bowling all-rounder Jason Holder in the side while considering the Jaipur surface. Zampa was included in the Rajasthan Royals team during the last two games against Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings where he picked up a wicket each in both the matches. However, with both Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal present in the side, RR might have want to add some extra pace to their bowling attack with Holder coming in place of Zampa.

“We are going to bowl first. It looks like a really good wicket. We are very happy to come back to Jaipur and play after 4 years. It’s all about how we react under pressure. We have a fearless attitude. We have one change. Jason comes back in for Zampa,” said Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson during the toss.
