The revolving door of senior Melbourne Stars players has continued to spin after Adam Zampa copped a one-game suspension and was fined $2,500 by Cricket Australia for an audible obscenity .
Zampa was found guilty of the offence during the Stars clash with the Sydney Thunder on Tuesday, his second transgression within 12 months, meaning Cricket Australia have suspended him for their upcoming game against Hobart Hurricanes on Saturday.
QUICK SINGLE
The leg-spinner was heard over the stump mic swearing in frustration at the end of his third over, having already conceded 32 runs.
Given Zampa had previously incurred another Level One offence against the Brisbane Heat last January for using language, actions or gestures which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter during last season s KFC BBL, the second offence triggered a one-match ban.

While the league has been vocal about their desire to change the game and implement new rules like the Bash Boost or the Power Surge, the simple ability to review an umpiring decision remains a bridge too far, seemingly.
It would have been handy on Tuesday night when AJ Tye had Usman Khawaja caught behind off a clear nick during the second innings of the Scorchers taking on the Thunder.
Tye heard it, the Scorchers fielders heard it, we all heard it at home, but umpires Simon Lightbody and Donovan Koch disagreed.
