Big blow to Australian team before WTC final, this dangerous player out due to injury
Josh Hazlewood Ruled Out: Before the final of the World Test Championship against India, the Australia team suffered a major setback. Australia's experienced fast bowler Josh Hazlewood has been ruled out of this match due to injury. Along with his ouster, the replacement has also been announced immediately by Cricket Australia.
Only three days are left for the final of the World Test Championship to be played between India and Australia. This great match will be played on June 7 at the Oval in London. But, before this, the Australian team has suffered a major setback. Australia's experienced fast bowler Josh Hazlewood has been ruled out of this match due to injury. Along with his ouster, the replacement has also been announced immediately by Cricket Australia.
In a statement issued by the ICC, it has been said that Josh Hazlewood is suffering from Achilles and back injuries. For this reason, he did not spend much time with Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League 2023, looking to avoid any danger. Now he has been dropped from the team because of his injury. Michael Neser has been included in the team as his replacement.
All-rounder Michael Neser has been included in the Kangaroos' 15-man squad for the one-off Test against India in London. If the selectors prefer him over Scott Boland, then his place in the playing eleven is also assured. The Event Technical Committee of the World Test Championship Final has also approved the inclusion of Miker Neser in the Australian team.
