Josh Hazlewood, the Australian fast bowler, has received a clean bill of health ahead of the highly anticipated World Test Championship (WTC) finals against India. After experiencing some soreness during the Indian Premier League (IPL), concerns were raised about his fitness. However, following thorough scans and assessments in Australia, Hazlewood has been declared fit and ready to join the Australian bowling attack in June.<\/p>\n
The news of Hazlewood\u2019s fitness comes as a tremendous relief for the Australian team and fans alike. With the WTC finals being an important event in the world of Test cricket, having a bowler like Hazlewood in the squad is invaluable. His ability to consistently hit the right line and length, movement off the pitch is what Australia wants.<\/p>\n
Hazlewood\u2019s presence in the Australian side adds depth and variety to their bowling attack. Alongside the likes of Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc, he forms a fearsome trio that can trouble even the most accomplished batsmen. His ability to swing the new ball and reverse swing after some stages of an innings adds an extra dimension to Australia\u2019s bowling unit.<\/p>\n
