Josh Hazlewood Injury: The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have delivered an excellent performance in IPL 2025 so far. They have played 11 matches, winning 8 and losing 3. With 16 points, RCB is currently placed second on the points table.
However, the tournament was suspended for a week due to rising tensions between India and Pakistan. Now, with peace talks progressing, IPL 2025 is expected to resume soon. Reports suggest that the remaining matches might be played at only three venues to ensure safety and smooth scheduling.
Josh Hazlewood is likely to miss the remaining matches due to injury.
Just before the league restarts, RCB may suffer a big blow. Their star fast bowler, Josh Hazlewood, is likely to miss the remaining matches due to injury.
According to reports, Cricket Australia is closely monitoring his condition. They want Hazlewood to be fully fit in time for the upcoming World Test Championship (WTC) Final. This means Hazlewood might not be available for RCB’s important clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and possibly other matches as well.
RCB would certainly hope that he recovers quickly, but his return seems uncertain at the moment.
Mitchell Starc’s Decision Crucial for DC
Another Australian pacer, Mitchell Starc, is also in a similar situation. He plays for Delhi Capitals (DC), a team still in the playoff race.
Earlier, the DC vs PBKS match in Dharamsala was cancelled due to security concerns. After that, all players were safely moved to Delhi, including Starc.
Now, Starc may also have to make an important decision about whether to stay with his team or return home to prepare for international duties.
BCCI to Make Big Announcement Soon
The BCCI is expected to announce the new IPL 2025 schedule soon. It will also be interesting to see whether other foreign players will return to complete the tournament.
Fans are eagerly waiting for the official update and to watch their favourite stars back in action.
