Bengaluru, April 25 -- Royal Challengers Bengaluru pace spearhead Josh Hazlewood levelled former Mumbai Indians speedster Mitchell McClenaghan's record for fastest to 50 IPL wickets by pacers in the Indian Premier League (IPL) history.

Hazlewood spoiled Rajasthan's attempts to end its losing streak with his sizzling four-wicket haul. While his compatriots Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yash Dayal struggled to find consistency, Hazlewood hunted the Royals alone with his scorching pace.

The seasoned 34-year-old whiskered past the 50-wicket mark in the cash-rich league in 36 appearances, the same number McClenaghan needed to achieve the milestone, making them the joint-fourth highest.
