IPL 2026: My Strength Lies In Hitting Hard Length Consistently, Says RCB’s Hazlewood
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) fast bowler Josh Hazlewood said the key to his success in the shortest format comes from sticking to his strengths, as the defending champions prepare to face Delhi Capitals in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 fixture at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
RCB, currently on eight points, will look to further consolidate their position on the points table, and a win over DC would get them to reclaim top spot in the points table. “My strength is hitting that hard length consistently and making it difficult for batters to score. In T20 cricket, it’s about executing that under pressure and adapting when needed.
“With the way T20 cricket is going, the expectations on batters are very high. If you can build a few quiet deliveries, the pressure can shift quickly and create opportunities,” Hazlewood said in the pre-game press conference, ahead of the clash where RCB will also don their iconic green jerseys as part of the franchise’s ‘Green Initiative’.
