Josh Hazlewood Builds His Ideal T20 Bowler: Picks from Bumrah to Rabada
RCB's Hazlewood reveals his top picks for the ultimate T20 pacer—find out who made the cut!
Josh Hazlewood is back in the IPL mix, and he's not just bowling; he's crafting the ultimate T20 fast bowler. During a fun chat, the RCB speedster picked players for different attributes, and it’s a lineup that’ll get any cricket fan talking. Instead of going for the usual suspects like Jofra Archer, Hazlewood surprised us by naming Indian talents Kartik Tyagi and Mayank Yadav for their raw pace. Talk about a bold choice!
When it comes to control, Hazlewood, known for his pinpoint accuracy, didn’t pick himself—no modesty here! Instead, he chose Kagiso Rabada and Pat Cummins for their incredible line and length. But it’s the variations of Jasprit Bumrah that caught his eye for the perfect T20 bowler. And let's not forget the toe-crushing yorkers of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, which are simply lethal.
Hazlewood also highlighted Bumrah as the best death bowler, while Bhuvneshwar is his pick for new-ball prowess. But here’s the kicker: when asked about game awareness, Hazlewood finally picked himself! He acknowledged that today’s fast bowlers are getting smarter, but it’s clear he’s still got a keen sense of the game.
With such a line-up, Hazlewood’s vision of a T20 bowler blends youth with experience and skill. Who wouldn't want to see this dream team in action?
