He also contributed with the bat, scoring 36 and 15 batting at No.11.<\/p>\n<p>Joseph outdid himself in the West Indies\u2019 surprise victory over Australia in the second Test in Brisbane.

A seven-wicket haul from debutant Tom Hartley secured a memorable Test win for the visitors.<\/p>\n<h3>Josh Hazlewood (Australia)<\/h3>\n<p>The ever-dependable Australian was at his best during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bolnews.com\/sports\/2024\/01\/suryakumar-yadav-wins-icc-mens-t20i-cricketer-of-the-year-again\/\">ICC<\/a> World Test Championship matches in January, taking a total of 19 wickets at an average of just 11.63.<\/p>\n<p>Hazlewood\u2019s month started with him helping Australia secure a 3-0 series win over Pakistan with a four-wicket haul in the second innings at the SCG. He followed this up with nine wickets in total as the reigning World Test Championship winners comfortably defeated the West Indies in Adelaide.<\/p>\n<p>Hazlewood took another five wickets in the second Test against the West Indies at the Gabba, rounding off an excellent January for the seasoned Australian fast bowler.<\/p>\n<div class=\"alsoread\">\n<h4 class=\"text-uppercase mb-10 mt-20 fs-18\">Also Read<\/h4>\n<div class=\"post-box sty22\">\n<div class=\"post-frame js-ratioHtP\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<h5 class=\"title\">Sri Lanka Cricket reinstated by ICC after three months<\/h5>\n<p>Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) was reinstated by the ICC.
