IPL 2026: 'Rahul's Technique Helped Him Counter Hazlewood,' Says Finch After DC Beat RCB
Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Former Australian cricketer Aaron Finch feels that Delhi Capitals (DC) wicketkeeper batter KL Rahul's technique helped him conquer Josh Hazlewood's challenge in the 26th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 clash against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday.
Chasing 176, Delhi Capitals were under pressure early after slipping to 18/3 in the powerplay. Rahul then took charge of the innings, counter-attacking the RCB bowlers and shifting momentum with his positive approach. Finch pointed out that Rahul’s strong technique allowed him to handle Hazlewood’s disciplined line and length effectively.
“He came after him early, first ball, he pumped him over cover for six. He had a decent match-up against Hazlewood. He’s probably the one player whose game really suits a bowler like Hazlewood, where he’s in and around that off stump,” Finch said on ESPNcricinfo’s TimeOut show.
