Josh Hazlewood’s Top 3 Performances in IPL 2025

Australian pace sensation Josh Hazlewood has a stellar IPL 2025 campaign, grabbing 22 wickets from the 12 matches he has played this season. The right-arm seamer has finished up as the third leading wicket-taker in the tournament and played a huge role in guiding the side to win their maiden title on June 3rd after beating Punjab Kings by six runs.

Hazlewood was a part of RCB’s project as the 34-year-old cricketer was an expensive buy in the mega-auction. RCB’s bowling unit relied on Hazlewood’s success, and he managed to live up to his potential and helped them to win their first title.

Josh Hazlewood’s best bowling spell came in the 42nd game of the IPL 2025. The right-arm pacer has picked up four-wicket hauls while conceding just 33 runs to help RCB beat RR. He was later awarded POTM for his match-winning spells. The RCB has posted 205/5 thanks to Kohli’s stellar batting performance. However, Hazlewood’s bowling spells restricted the visitors to 194/9 in the 20 overs of the game.

The right-arm pacer has picked up three wickets in the 34th game of the IPL 2025 against the Punjab Kings. However, his efforts went in vain as RCB suffered a crushing defeat in this game. The hosts were able to rack up 95/9 in the 14 overs of the play after rain halted the play. However, Punjab Kings chased down the total with 14 balls to spare in this game. Despite the loss, Hazlewood’s bowling efforts were lauded by the cricketing world.

Hazlewood’s bowling spells, alongside Krunal Pandya’s efforts, bundled out the Punjab Kings for just 101 runs. However, RCB chased down the total with 10 overs in hand.
