CSK vs RCB: Why is Josh Hazlewood Not Playing Today’s IPL 2023 Match?

RCB is still mulling over the fact that Australia’s senior pace bowler Josh Hazlewood is not part of the playing 11 for the RCB vs CSK IPL 2023 match on Monday. After missing the first three matches against Lucknow Super Giants, Kolkata Knight Riders, and Mumbai Indians due to an Achilles injury, Hazlewood has finally joined the Royal Challengers Bangalore camp ahead of their clash against Delhi Capitals.
