For three-and-a-half years, from March 2016 to December 2019, Hazlewood didn’t know what it is to bowl in a T20 game. But in these three-and-a-half years, he learned how it is to bowl in a T20 game.

In his four-wicket-taking deliveries Josh Hazlewood showed his wonderful repertoire to produce his best IPL figures (4/25). The first to take out Quinton de Kock was a cracker that kicked up from a length to startle the batsman into a poke. That was the classic Test match Hazlewood. Then he produced a short ball to hurry Manish Pandey whose weak pull was swallowed at midwicket. Then came the lovely slower one to remove Ayush Badoni. Seeing Badoni move outside, off for his favourite on-side swipe and knowing his ability to drag from even wide outside off, Hazlewood adjusted to spear his slower one a lot more wider. He has a wide variety of slower balls these days - off cutter, leg cutter, knuckle ball - and he chose to roll the fingers on this but also get it to swerve wider. Badoni could only nick it. Then came the finishing blow; he hurled a quick full one to Marcus Stoinis, who was angry that the previous ball wasn’t given a wide and went for a big slog, and it ricocheted off his pad onto the stumps.

Last over now. Lucknow need 31 from 6 balls. They need sixes and fours. Harshal to bowl. The first ball is a dot and the second ball has gone for a six!!! They need plenty more from where that came from. Another dot ball. Another 6!!!!! But too little too late for Holder and LSG. The next ball goes up a long way and Holder is dismissed off Harshal by Siraj. Great catch. All over. RCB win by 18 runs.
The penultimate over now. The last over was pretty well bowled by Harshal with just a boundary off it by Stoinis. RCB will hope for more of the same. Hazlewood to bowl this over and he cleans up Stoinis. The previous delivery was a wide but it was not given. That probably shook Stoinis. He shouts and leaves the field, absolutely fuming after getting bowled!! LSG 148/7 after 18.2 overs.
That's a four to start by Stoinis by oh my word, LSG has lost another wicket in the space of 3 more balls. This time it's the youngster was Ayush Badoni. Hazlewood is unplayable tonight. LSG 135/6 after 16.4 overs
Stoinis on strike for Hsaranga's over. We are into the slog overs now. And that's a musculur six!!! Absolute brute force. 11 off this overr. LSG 128/5 after 16 overs.
That's 4 more for Krunal Pandya to start the 14th over. And that's out!!! Maxwell gets a wicket. Krunal Pandya goes. LSG 108/5 after 13.4 overs.
What a brilliant catch by Suyash Prabhudessai. Deepak Hooda plays an upper cut and Suaysh takes a tumbling catch at the third man. Deepak Hooda departs for 13. Siraj gets the wicket.
Edge, and it flies down the third man for a Four. Unlucky for Harshal. Eleven runs came from Harshal's over. Lucknow Super Giants need 83 runs in 48 balls.
Dinesh Karthik was convinced he had his man, but Deepak Hooda's feet were behind the line, and he survived. Good bowling from Shahbaz. Five runs came from Shahbaz's final over. He ended the spell with 4-0-25-0. Lucknow Super Giants need 94 runs in 54balls.
Krunal Pandya is in the groove. He hits it over the deep extra cover for a maximum. Eleven came from Wanindu Hasaranga's first over. Lucknow Super Giants need 99 runs in 60 balls.
Hasaranga strays on the pads, and Deepak Hooda doesn't hesitate to sweep and powers this behind square flat to the rope.
Krunal Pandya steps down the track and clears the mid-wicket fence for a maximum. Excellent come back from Shahbaz after that six only eight came from his over. Lucknow Super Giants need 110 runs in 66 balls.
Harshal Patel gets the wicket of KL Rahul. What a review by RCB. KL Rahul looks to glance this but misses and Harshal Patel convinces Faf to take the review after the umpire signals Not Out, UltraEdge shows a slight deflection as the ball passes the bat and Harshal gets the big wicket of the Rahul Lucknow Super Giants need 118 runs in 72 balls.
Tad wide from Harshal and KL Rahul cut it past the point boundary for a four. Harshal followed it with a bumper and it went 5 wide. Fourteen came from Harshal's first over. Lucknow Super Giants need 118 runs in 72 balls.
Krunal Pandya welcomes Harshal Patel with a boundary. Nicely times, good effort by Suyash Prabhudessai at he extra-cover boundary but he couldn't save it.
Six runs came from Shahbaz's over and 50 is up for LSG. Lucknow Super Giants need 132 runs in 78 balls.
Straight as an arrow. First boundary for Krunal Pandya. Then he follows it up with a beautiful cover drive. Back-to-back boundaries for Krunal. Lucknow Super Giants need 138 runs in 84 balls.
Manish Pandey's woeful run continues. Josh Hazlewood strikes again. It was a back of a length delivery on off stump, cramps Pandey, he miscued the pull and Harshal takes a dolly. Lucknow Super Giants need 150 runs in 90 balls.
Short and down the leg side from Josh Hazlewood and KL Rahul swivels pull it over short fine leg for a maximum.
