Hazlewood's Return to RCB

Reports indicate that Josh Hazlewood will be rejoining the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) as the IPL 2025 season resumes. His absence had raised concerns among fans, given his pivotal role in RCB's pace attack and his ability to secure crucial wickets for the team.


The IPL 2025 faced a suspension due to rising tensions between India and Pakistan, leading to the abandonment of the match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals because of a power outage at the Dharamsala stadium. Despite dealing with a shoulder issue, Hazlewood has been impressive in the tournament, having taken 18 wickets so far, although his fitness status had been uncertain.



Upon the league's return, RCB is set to face the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in their first match. Currently, RCB holds the second spot in the IPL 2025 standings, while KKR is positioned sixth.
