Summary
- Josh Hazlewood took a wicket after being hit for 14 runs.
- Hazlewood's celebration was uncharacteristically fiery.
- A slower leg-cutter deceived the batter for the wicket.
In a dramatic turn during the IPL 2026 Qualifier 1 in Dharamshala, Royal Challengers Bangalore bowler Josh Hazlewood showcased a rare display of fiery celebration after dismissing Jos Buttler. Buttler had initially taken the Australian pacer to task, smashing 14 runs in the opening three balls of the over.
However, Hazlewood swiftly adapted his strategy. Opting for a smart change of pace, he bowled a slower leg-cutter that proved deceptive. The ball skidded off the pitch, catching a backing away Buttler completely off guard and crashing into the stumps. This crucial wicket clearly energized Hazlewood, leading to his uncharacteristic, jubilant reaction.
