New Zealand tearaway pacer Lockie Ferguson, who last played international cricket in the final of the World Cup, will return to action for a New Zealand XI game that will engage the visiting English side in a series of warm-up matches, ahead of next month’s five-match T20I series.
Ferguson, whose tour of Sri Lanka ended before it began after he sustained a fracture to his thumb at training, last took part in a warm-up T20 match against a Sri Lanka Board President’s XI in August.
“The thumb has healed well and I’m looking forward to having a hit-out at Lincoln,” Ferguson was quoted as saying by ICC.
