Josh Hazlewood made a big statement after winning the POTM Award
After receiving the POTM Award, Josh Hazlewood said that, he was to stay on his strength first. I knew that it was difficult to put the ball on the hard length on this wicket, so it was the right way to mix yorker, slow balls and the order of throwing them. There was no chance to play in this format, Test cricket and then ODI cricket.
First Sydney Sixers, CSK and now RCB, these three teams are mainly and to Australia to some extent. Take information from different parts and keep it together. For us the largest key group is to deliver information. I like our bowling attack.
I think we have covered every base, everyone has their own day and we are doing well. The bounce here in the entire tournament is very fast, it was unprecedented to achieve that score. I think it was much better than the average and the players did a really fabulous job.
