BBL 2022-23: The Melbourne Stars have named Adam Zampa as their new captain for the forthcoming Big Bash League in Glenn Maxwell’s absence. The leg-spinner joined Stars for the tournament’s fifth iteration and has played for them ever since.
Maxwell, who shattered his leg last month during a birthday celebration, has been out for the entire season. The team will give their utmost to win their first Big Bash title, Adam Zampa, who took the all-position, rounder’s said in a public statement. Zampa also stated that this season, he hopes to play with Trent Boult and Luke Wood.
“It’s a privilege to take the helm of the Melbourne Stars in Glenn’s absence, and I look forward to working with this team to maximise its potential. We’re putting everything into this season to win the BBL, since, without one, our Stars journey won’t be complete, according to the newly chosen Stars skipper.
“I’m very thrilled to be playing with Trent Boult, Luke Wood, and Joe Clarke again this year, both for the first time. I’m excited to lead our team with Marcus serving as vice-captain, and we want to see as many of our supporters at the MCG on Friday, December 16 as we can.
Usman Khawaja will be replaced by Jason Sangha as the Sydney Thunder captain.
Jason Sangha, a 23-year-old, has been named the Sydney Thunder’s new captain. Khawaja, who captained the team the previous year, has already departed the organisation and will captain Brisbane Heat in the upcoming campaign.
When Usman Khawaja missed three games of the previous season, the teenager was also spotted directing the Thunder’s team. Sangha has been given the full-time position while David Warner’s availability as a captain is still being considered.
This is significant. At Sydney Thunder, I had the good fortune to play alongside some incredible captains, starting with Shane Watson.
There have also been other excellent skippers, including as Chris Green, Usman Khawaja, and Callum Ferguson. After being chosen as the team’s new captain, Sangha claimed that each of them had a great effect on the group and that they all performed a good job of leading by example.
