Josh Hazlewood is a tall and accurate fast bowler from Australia. He stands at 1.96 metres and bowls right-arm fast medium. Born in Tamworth, New South Wales, on January 8, 1991, Hazlewood has become one of the most reliable bowlers in world cricket. He made his Test debut in 2014 and quickly became a regular member of Australia’s attack. Growing up, he looked up to Glenn McGrath, and his bowling style shows that influence. He bowls with great control and rarely gives away easy runs. Over his career, he has taken nearly 500 international wickets. He has also been part of winning World Cup teams in both T20 and ODI formats for Australia. In the IPL, he has played for teams like Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and Mumbai Indians. In 2025, he helped Royal Challengers Bengaluru win their first IPL title by taking 22 wickets in the tournament.
