Adam Zampa Plays His 100th T20 International on the West Indies Tour

Adam Zampa has played his 100th T20 international, becoming the first bowler to reach the mark for Australia. The milestone came in the fifth T20I against West Indies at Warner Park in Basseterre, St. Kitts, on Monday, July 28, 2025. Australia won by three wickets to complete a 5-0 series sweep, the scorecard shows.

Zampa is the fourth Australian to 100 T20Is after Glenn Maxwell, David Warner and Aaron Finch. It was his 26th consecutive T20 for his country, and he went into the game as Australia's leading wicket-taker in the format with 124, cricket.com.au reports. He finished the series level with Ben Dwarshuis on eight wickets. West Indies were bowled out for 170 and Australia chased it down in 17 overs, the first time an Australian side has won a five-match T20 series 5-0.

"A proud moment to play 100 T20 internationals, not many of us have done it."

"I love playing for Australia and I've always tried to put that first, I've always made sure that I'm tip top for these games, it's something I pride myself on."

Zampa is a committed vegan and has appeared in a PETA advertising campaign. He is refreshingly honest that it isn't a performance hack. "I'm not vegan to help my performance," he told BBC Sport. "I did it because I care about animals and the environment. It's really easy for me because I'm passionate about it." On tour he travels light on clothes so he can pack a microwave, nutritional yeast, vegan mac and cheese, miso soup and peanut butter. A hundred caps of staying "tip top" suggests it works just fine.

Zampa keeps ticking off milestones. Last year he became the first Australian man to take 100 T20I wickets. He was Australia's leading spinner as they won their first T20 World Cup in 2021, and he took 23 wickets as Australia won the Cricket World Cup in 2023.
