SIBY JEYYA
Due to injury, Australian fast bowler josh Hazlewood will miss the second Test of the Ashes series in Adelaide. The Ashes Test series is now ongoing between england and Australia. In the first match, australia defeated england by 9 wickets in Brisbane, 1-0 in the second innings of this Test match. Jose Hazlewood, the team's fast bowler, has a hamstring issue. As a result, after only a few overs, he retired.

Doctors have urged Hazelwood to take a week off because his injury in the test was minimal. Hazelwood will miss the day-night Test against england in adelaide, which begins on Thursday. Without Hazelwood, who has an excellent record of 32 wickets in the day-night series, the Australian squad would suffer a disadvantage. As an alternate to Hazelwood, Tye Richardson has been introduced. Michael Nieser, a fast bowler, and Michael Swepson, a spinner, have also been added.

"Hazelwood has been ruled out of the adelaide Test owing to a hamstring injury," the cricket Board of australia announced in a statement. Yesterday afternoon, Hazelwood arrived in Sydney. After assessing his wounds, doctors advised him to relax. His health will improve, and depending on his fitness, he will be confirmed to play in the Boxing Day Test in Sydney. The Australian players that will play in the adelaide Test match will be used to pick players for the Sydney Test match.
