Champions Trophy 2025: New Zealand Lead Pacer's Participation In Doubt After Hamstring Injury In ILT20

ABP News  

Barely 11 days before their Champions Trophy opener against Pakistan, New Zealand's leading pace bowler Lockie Ferguson has been rendered doubtful for the ODI tournament after suffering a hamstring injury during an ILT20 match in the UAE. Coach Gary Stead confirmed the key bowler has undergone scans to know the extent of the injury and the preceding tri-series that also involves South Africa. "Small hamstring injury, by the look of it, so we're just waiting on a timeline of advice around that before we make a decision on whether Lockie travels here or whether we do have to replace him for the Champions Trophy," added Stead. Tough night; wish I could've bowled the last ball," Ferguson, who has played 65 ODIs and is just one wicket shy of completing a century of scalps, had said after the match on Wednesday.
