IPL 2026: Hazlewood And Bhuvi's Success Down To Sticking To Basics, Says KL Rahul
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Delhi Capitals wicketkeeper‑batter KL Rahul has lauded the consistency of Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar in T20s, saying their success lies in doing the simple things right under pressure. The duo have been central to defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) becoming the first team to qualify for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 playoffs.
While Bhuvneshwar is leading wicket-taking charts with 24 scalps from 13 matches, Hazlewood has 12 wickets from ten games. "In today's T20 cricket, everyone talks about having a unique bowling style or an X-factor. But Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar are very simple, traditional bowlers. Yet, year after year, they keep succeeding and troubling batters.
“That tells us that you don't always need to try something different. Simple things work if you do them consistently and under pressure. That is what I admire about Josh and Bhuvi. With many bowlers, if you hit them off their good ball, they panic and try something new. But with Josh and Bhuvi, no matter what you do, they stick to their plan.
