PERTH: Leading Australian spinner Adam Zampa has Covid but is still available for selection for their Twenty20 World Cup matches.
The 30-year-old leg-spinner will have to travel separately from the rest of the team and be located away from his team-mates, according to the rules, but he is allowed to play.
“Zampa’s symptoms are improving and are now reported as minor in severity,” Cricket Australia said in a statement.
“A decision will be made (on his selection) closer to the toss,” CA added.
“No other Australian squad members or staff have reported symptoms.”
Ireland’s George Dockrell played on Sunday in Hobart against Asian champions Sri Lanka despite having Covid.
Defending champions Australia are looking to bounce back against Sri Lanka from their opening loss to New Zealand in a tough Group 1 which also includes England.
