New Zealand pacer Lockie Ferguson, has been diagnosed with a partial fracture to his Lumbar spine. NZC have handed an official confirmation that Ferguson will be out for 4-6 weeks. New Zeland’s Head coach Gary Stead said “We’re all really feeling for Lockie. Injuries are certainly part of our sport, but to get something like this when you’re at the very top of your game is especially disappointing. The pace and skill he’s been able to consistently produce has made him one of the very best white-ball bowlers in the world and a huge asset for the Blackcaps.”
