Josh Hazlewood | Royal Challengers Bengaluru
It’s been a bit of a long road the last few months, but yeah, got the rust out, I guess, last game against Rajasthan. Felt much better today and the rhythm feels in good shape. (On hitting the right length) A little bit of everything there. You’ve got to look at who you’re playing against, what players are at the other end and the conditions obviously play a part.
It was quite a slow wicket today and it was a little bit up and down, so I just had to whack away that length and get the result. It was an all-round effort today. I thought all the bowlers bowled unbelievable. I’d like to have a few funky deliveries, but as a Test bowler, it’s quite hard to bowl good slower balls. always working on them.
