Adam Zampa becomes second Australian spinner after Shane Warne to 200 ODI wickets as Steve Smith recalls Sandpapergate

Adam Zampa has joined rarefied company. The leg-spinner has scripted history by becoming only the second Australian spinner after the great Shane Warne to reach 200 ODI wickets — a milestone that places him alongside the man whose 293 ODI scalps remain the benchmark for Australian spin.

While Zampa looks forward, Steve Smith has been looking back. Ahead of Australia's tour of South Africa, Smith recalled the 2018 Sandpapergate scandal, admitting: 'I still have flashbacks.'

The 2018 Newlands saga remains one of cricket's darkest episodes: Smith and Cameron Bancroft confessed to pre-meditating the act of altering the condition of the ball during the third Test. Australia are back on South African soil for the ongoing SA v AUS ODI series, with the memories of 2018 never far away.
