Reddy Anna Match Prediction: Lockie Ferguson Ruled Out of Sri Lanka ODIs with Calf Injury

New Zealand’s pace spearhead, Lockie Ferguson, has been ruled out of the upcoming ODI series against Sri Lanka due to a calf injury. Known for his searing pace and lethal bowling, Ferguson played a crucial role in New Zealand’s recent T20I victory, claiming a hat-trick in just two overs. Unfortunately, his performance was cut short when he was forced to leave the field in discomfort after his second over. His absence will be felt keenly as New Zealand prepares for a crucial ODI series.

In response to Ferguson’s injury, New Zealand has called up Adam Milne, a bowler with similar speed and skill. Milne’s extensive international experience and ability to bowl at high pace make him a fitting replacement for Ferguson. Head coach Gary Stead expressed his disappointment, stating, “We’re gutted for Lockie. His leadership and bowling skills were invaluable to the team. Adam is a like-for-like replacement who brings plenty of experience, and we’re looking forward to having him back with the squad.”

Ferguson will return home for further medical assessments to determine the severity of his injury and establish a recovery timeline. New Zealand’s medical team is hopeful that Ferguson’s recovery will be swift and he will be back on the field soon.
