Australia suffer a big blow as star pacer Josh Hazlewood is reportedly out of the Ashes after a hamstring injury worsened
Hazlewood picked up the injury during a Sheffield Shield match vs Victoria. What seemed minor is now far more serious
Hazlewood missed the 1st Test and may miss the entire series, with Pat Cummins also out initially. Despite this, Australia won in Perth
According to some reports, Hazlewood’s injury appears more serious than publicly stated, raising doubts over his return this series
Hazlewood also missed most of last summer with a calf issue and played only one Test in the 2021–22 Ashes
While Hazlewood may be out, skipper Pat Cummins is close to full fitness and could return for the Gabba Test on December 4
