Any time I bowl in England I'm reasonably confident, says Hazlewood ahead of WTC Final
New Delhi: Ahead of Australia facing South Africa in the World Test Championship final, fast-bowler Josh Hazlewood said he always feels reasonably confident while bowling in Tests in England and added that he will increase his pace in the run-up to the one-off clash starting at the Lord's on June 11. In 12 Tests in England, Hazlewood has picked 52 wickets at an average of 26.07. The fast bowler took five wickets in his most recent match at the Lord's, which happened during the 2023 Ashes series against England. "Any time I bowl in England, I'm reasonably confident. I've had some good tours here over the last 10 years, and Lord's in particular. I haven't lost before at Lord's yet as a player, certainly in red-ball cricket for sure, and we have had a couple of good wins there over the years." "Today is sort of post-flight and just to get moving. I will probably nail down a few more overs tomorrow and then over the next few days, tick a lot of boxes,' Hazlewood told ICC on Saturday. Hazlewood hasn't played a red-ball game since he featured in the third Test against India at The Gabba in December 2024 due to a calf strain. Then seamer Scott Boland took over and went on to pick a 10-wicket haul against India at Sydney. This means that there's a toss-up between Hazlewood and Boland for the third seamer's slot at Lord's. What does help Hazlewood's case is Hazlewood that he arrives in London on the back of some overs under his belt while winning IPL 2025 for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, including overcoming a minor shoulder niggle. "I ticked over some good overs just before the (IPL) Final in Ahmedabad in different weather than this, and it was quite a tough session. And then obviously, every time you play a game in the IPL, you're probably going to get almost seven or eight overs in, if you really want to." 'So in and around with warm-ups, and obviously the four overs in the game. And we bowled second a lot of the time in IPL, so that was sort of two warm-ups, so you can squeeze in overs here and there, and things are going pretty well." "Everyone looks in good shape. We've all been in different parts of the world playing or training over the last couple of months, so it's good to get everyone together and catch up with everyone yesterday and the day before and get all on the same page moving forward," he concluded.

Ranveer Singh gushes with pride, Samantha Ruth Prabhu calls Deepika Padukone a ‘queen' as she signs Atlee's film starring Allu Arjun
Bollywood fans are buzzing with excitement, and all eyes are on Deepika Padukone . Just weeks after reports of her exit from 'Spirit', the actress has bounced back with a bang. She's now set to star in a grand pan-India film with South megastar Allu Arjun and hit filmmaker Atlee. The project, currently titled 'AA22 x A6', is already creating massive waves online. A stunning comeback after becoming a mum This marks Deepika's first film after welcoming her daughter Dua, making the project even more special for her fans. The announcement came through a stylish teaser video that quickly went viral. In the clip, Atlee is seen narrating the story to Deepika, who looks effortlessly graceful in an all-white outfit. Without revealing too much, the teaser gave fans just enough to get excited about. Many are now eagerly waiting to see Deepika in what's being teased as a 'never-seen-before avatar'. Samantha's shoutout: 'Yasss Queen' The announcement also got love from fellow actresses. Samantha Ruth Prabhu was one of the first to cheer her on. She re-shared the video on her Instagram Story and wrote, 'Yasss Queen Deepika Padukone, Atlee.' The video's caption described Deepika as a 'queen' who is ready to 'conquer', and Samantha's shoutout added even more sparkle to the already exciting news. Ranveer Singh 's sweet reaction Deepika's biggest supporter, her husband Ranveer Singh, didn't hold back either. The 'Simmba' star reacted to her announcement post with a burst of emojis and a one-word comment that summed up his pride. He wrote, 'Whuoa!' followed by heart-eyed, fire, and clapping emojis. 'Spirit' exit sparked debates The timing of this new announcement is interesting, as it follows Deepika's much-talked-about exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga 's 'Spirit'. Reports say that the actress had asked for an eight-hour workday, a high salary, and a share in the film's profits. These demands, however, didn't go down well with the director. Deepika, who recently became a mother, is now reportedly trying to strike a better balance between her work and family life by reducing her working hours. Due to this, she was dropped from 'Spirit'. Fans praise Atlee for understanding Deepika While the 'Spirit' exit raised eyebrows, fans are now applauding Atlee for teaming up with Deepika. Many believe he truly understands and respects her choices and superstar status. The comments section of the teaser video is full of fans thanking Atlee for 'understanding' Deepika's current phase in life.
