Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer has said that Australia spinner Adam Zampa will probably sit out most of IPL 2023 as Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal will play for RR. "Last year, RR didn't have any backup for Ashwin and Chahal. Now, they've got far too many," stated Jaffer. RR bought Zampa for ₹1.5 crore in the auction.
