Summary
- Josh Hazlewood is working hard to recover from injury.
- He aims for a mid-tournament return to the World Cup squad.
- Australia recently lost a T20 series to Pakistan.
Australian cricketer Josh Hazlewood is making every effort to join the World Cup squad, though his participation is uncertain. Teammate Pat Cummins shared that Hazlewood is building his physical capacity after recovering from soft-tissue injuries that previously sidelined him. Hazlewood is reportedly disappointed by these setbacks but is committed to training rigorously.
Cummins believes Hazlewood might miss the tournament's start but could potentially feature halfway through. The Australian team is preparing for the World Cup following a challenging T20 series against Pakistan. Cummins acknowledged the team's rushed preparation for that series, with players arriving shortly after the Big Bash League concluded.
