“When you reflect on five years ago, you’re a kid who is literally just hoping to get on the next tour and give yourself a two-year career,” Zampa told
“I don’t know if that’s how everyone else starts off in their own mind but it’s pretty tough being a leg-spinner.
“Not many people have been able to sustain it for a long period of time so it’s something that I’m a little bit proud of.”
