CSK helped Australia to win T20 World Cup?
According to Australian captain Aaron Finch, Hazelwood, who was a member of the CSK squad for the IPL t20 series, "shared his experiences with us and helped us play better in the final." In the final of the t20 event in dubai yesterday, australia defeated new zealand by 8 wickets to claim the trophy for the first time. Mitchell Marsh was voted man of the match after scoring 77 off 50 balls (4 sixes, 6 fours), and David Warner was named man of the series after scoring 53 off 38 balls (3 sixes, 4 fours).
Finch who spoke to Australian media said, "Hazelwood is a key member of our bowling team. All of Hazelwood's experiences on the CSK squad were shared with us. Hazelwood, in particular, demonstrated how to throw at the line length, emphasising the importance of bowling and taking wickets in the final. In fact, Hazelwood bowling was the most difficult in the competition. Hazelwood provided us with a wealth of useful information. Hazelwood's outstanding success in the indian Premier League aided us in the World Cup.
Mitchell Marsh is normally the fourth player to arrive in the middle of the field. The task at hand, though, was to drop to third position. Marsh, who bowls fast, surmounted that obstacle as well. Western Australians have always been competitive and eager to take on new challenges. Hazlewood benefited from MS Dhoni's crucial information on dubai wickets, which he relayed to us and we played appropriately."
