As the T20 World Cup in India nears, New Zealand bowler Lockie Ferguson has affirmed his commitment to playing beyond the tournament. Despite being 34 and sidelined in 2025 due to injury, Ferguson, like his teammate Trent Boult, is determined to prolong his international career.
Known for his pace exceeding 150km/h, Ferguson, with 64 wickets in 43 T20 internationals at an average of 17, remains a crucial asset for New Zealand. Despite the toll his speed has taken on his body over the years, Ferguson is resolute about his decision to keep playing.
Preparing for the T20 World Cup in India, Ferguson emphasized his love for representing New Zealand and his readiness to perform at the upcoming tournament. Additionally, he is looking ahead to the 50-over World Cup in South Africa next year, expressing his enthusiasm for the upcoming challenges.
Ferguson, who has been actively training for the World Cup, is focused on maintaining his fitness and performance levels for both the T20 and 50-over formats. With a strong support system in place, he is motivated and eager to contribute to New Zealand’s cricket success.
