‘Pretty annoying’: Inside Josh Hazlewood’s fight to keep his Test career alive

Josh Hazlewood, a 35-year-old Australian fast bowler, is preparing to compete for his Test cricket spot alongside Scott Boland as he undergoes a 12-month training program aimed at maintaining his fitness and performance. Hazlewood has faced recurring injuries, including hamstring and Achilles issues, which limited his participation in the previous Ashes series. During his absence, Boland emerged as a standout performer, prompting selection chairman George Bailey to consider him among the top contenders for the Test XI. To prepare for potential Test matches, Hazlewood has focused exclusively on red-ball cricket, avoiding white-ball tournaments, and has engaged in intensive training sessions in Brisbane. He acknowledges the role of luck in his workload distribution but emphasizes the strategic planning behind his preparation. Hazlewood expressed willingness to share playing time with Boland and acknowledged the need for team collaboration to ensure sustained success.
