Australian pacer Josh Hazlewood, who will play for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL in 2023, will miss a few games while his Achilles heals. The Australian pacer, who has been sent home for treatment, will also miss the final two Test matches against India. The RCB pacer\u2019s availability for the team\u2019s opening game against the Mumbai Indians on April 2 is still unknown.<\/p>\n
Hazlewood\u2019s exclusion from the three-match ODI series against India that begins on March 17 dealt a severe blow to Australia. Hazlewood\u2019s difficulty in controlling Achilles led Australia to decide to have him sent back.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust a bit of workload management at the moment. Just managing the Achilles. I was bowling a fair bit leading into the tour at home and sort of just pushing up against it,\u201d Hazlewood said. \u201cProbably wasn\u2019t recovering as well as I would have liked between each session, so thought we\u2019d give it a few days here straight off the bat and try and get over the hump and have a bowl from Tuesday on (in Nagpur) and hope it goes well.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the other hand, RCB received good news. For the ODI series against India, Maxwell is\u00a0selected. The all-rounder could play a full IPL season for RCB without missing any games if he shows his fitness in these three games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
