Lucknow: The team of Royal Challengers Bangalore is taking on the Lucknow Super Giants at their home on Monday. In this match, an eight crore player from Bangalore got a chance to play for the first time this season. So far 42 matches have been played in IPL and after so many matches this fast bowler from Bangalore has got a chance. This player is fast bowler Josh Hazlewood.
Hazlewood was bought by RCB in the auction but he could not play the opening match due to injury. Its effect on the bowling of the team was clearly visible. But Hazlewood joined the team a few days ago and is playing his first match of this season on Monday.
RCB’s strength will increase
With the arrival of Hazlewood, the strength of RCB will definitely increase. Hazlewood of Australia is counted among the best bowlers of the present time. RCB’s bowling will be strengthened by his arrival. He can trouble the best batsmen with his bowling. Last year also he played for RCB and managed to take 20 wickets in 12 matches. If we look at his IPL career so far, this right-arm bowler has played 24 IPL matches and has taken 32 wickets.
Hazlewood is the third number bowler in the ICC T20 rankings. At the same time, he is at number one in the ODI rankings. That is, Hazlewood does wonders in limited overs and RCB can get the benefit of this.
