Fresh off a spectacular season with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, Hazlewood earned a new nickname from Indian fans, “Hazlegod.”The title was bestowed upon him in recognition of his match-winning performances, which helped RCB lift their maiden IPL trophy. However, Hazlewood’s reaction to the hype was refreshingly modest, suggesting he would be just fine if the nickname lost momentum.Speaking in a video released by ICC, Hazlewood admitted he was flattered by the fan-given moniker, but hoped it wouldn’t stick around for too long. “Hopefully it runs out of steam pretty quickly,” he said with a smile. “It's flattering, obviously, to hear it around the ground in India, but I don't think it'll take off in Australia.” His comments highlighted the grounded nature that has defined his career, even as his popularity soars on the back of standout performances.
