Sriram calls it quits as Australia's spin consultant

Sridharan Sriram has stepped down from his role of Australia's spin bowling consultant. The former Indian all-rounder took this decision to join hands with the famous IPL franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore. 

Sriram performed his role with distinction for six years, guiding the Aussie spinners to perfection, particularly during the team's subcontinental tours. The 46-year-old not only shared his knowledge with the spinners but also made the Australian batters well-equipped for the challenge on the spin-friendly Asian decks.

 In his reaction, Sriram said

"After being on the road for six years it's with a heavy heart I have decided to move on from my current role. I feel this is an opportune moment keeping in mind the team, giving them enough time to prepare for two World Cups and the World Test Championship. It has been a great experience for me working across formats, World Cups, and Ashes and I have come out incredibly richer in knowledge." 

Zampa lauds Sriram

The experienced Australian spinner Adam Zampa heaped praises on the outgoing coach for his immense knowledge and work ethic. The 30-year-old also thanked Sriram for grooming him into a skilful spinner.  

"I love working with Sri. He's someone I have a lot of respect for and his work ethic and knowledge of the game have been invaluable to my career in recent years," Zampa said.
