Josh Hazlewood has been instrumental in Australia’s success in the recent years. In all formats, he has been the backbone of the bowling team. His comeback in limited overs speaks volumes about his talents. He has converted his share of success in the T20 format, in addition to being a workhorse in the Test format.

Hazlewood was the driving force behind Australia’s T20 World Cup victory. He picked up 3 wickets giving away just 16 runs, which included the priced wicket of Kane Williamson. He bowled 18 dot deliveries throughout his period, which is quite impressive for a bowler in the final. In 15 games, he took 23 wickets at a remarkable 6.88 economy rate.

Apart from his resurgence in limited overs cricket, he continued his dream run in Test match cricket. In six games, he took 13 wickets at a remarkable average of 21.8. His ability to deliver in the nagging lines on a consistent basis makes him a difficult bowler to confront. He has the ability to consistently manufacture jaffas. In limited-overs cricket, he bowls with the new ball and tries to concentrate on the hard lengths, making him a devastating bowler.
