RCB’s IPL 2026 Plans in Tatters: Hazlewood Out!
Injury woes strike again as RCB's star pacer faces a lengthy absence.
Well, this is awkward! Just as the Royal Challengers Bengaluru were gearing up for IPL 2026, they’ve been hit with a massive blow. Star bowler Josh Hazlewood, the hero of their historic 2025 title run, is set to miss several matches due to ongoing injury issues. Talk about a pre-season nightmare!
RCB fans were buzzing at the thought of defending their crown, but this news could derail their momentum faster than a pie chucker’s average. With Hazlewood absent, the pressure will be on the likes of Harshal Patel and the rest of the bowling unit to step up and deliver some absolute seeds.
Injuries are part of the game, but this one stings hard. RCB need to dig deep and find that grit if they want to stay in the hunt early in the tournament. Can they rise to the occasion and keep their title defence alive?
