[Suleiman]

Lockheed Ferguson

 

[QalandarFan]

151.2 3 deliveries above 150.

 

[Aman]

150.2 KPH!

150 plus twice in a row!

150 again.

I am in awe, man wow!

all 5 at 150kph+

 

[Junaids]

I bet Smith and Warner are looking forward to Sohail bowling 130K and Imran chugging in at 122K!

 

[160KPH]

150 KPH Two in a row this time!

 

[Aman]

We have to persist with him, I don't care if he goes for runs.

Unearthed a real gem with him.

Sustained pace

 

[Ellipsism]

This Ferguson guy is the real deal, better than all our so called talented bunch combined.

 

[Aman]

150 KPH Two in a row this time!

Think every delivery was 150kph in the last over.

Doesn't look like he's really exerting himself either.

 

[160KPH]

5 Balls at 150 KPH in a row..
Already my favorite bowler currently

 

[DonJee]

what's wrong with george bailey stance??????

 

[Justcrazy]

5 balls in the over , 150 km !!

 

[160KPH]

I wanna see this guys effort ball. He could break 155+ this match.

 

[Aman]

Colin nearly had his victim of the day.

 

[DonJee]

george bailey ke stance ko lakwa to nahi ho giya????

 

[Aman]

Bailey and Smith batting together... it doesn't get uglier than that when it comes to batting.

 

[Belawal2014]

Whattay technique, Bailey.

 

[Aman]

Less pessimistic

 

[Belawal2014]

Every single ball of that over 150kph+

 

[Aman]

Every ball from Ferguson is a zinger )

152 clocked now.

 

[Aman]

I do not care if he's getting hit.

Pace is pace, if developed, he could be a huge asset for NZ.

Imagine an attack of Boult, Henry, Ferguson and Milne

 

[Justcrazy]

ferguson is bound to go for some runs , his job should be to strike

 

[street cricketer]

What BS stance is Bailey having?

 

[Aman]

149.1 to finish.

Yes , he has to be used for wickets , short bursts

Ferguson off after a great first spell, he was sharp throughout.

Pace is pace yaar

I'm getting jealous of NZ's pacers talent pool.

Oceania is having all the express pacers now (barring Rabada). New Zealand's (and Australia's) problem has always been maintaining their express pacers injury free in the longer format. Milne looked very promising but has hardly been able to play a test and so is Cummins. But it would be fantastic if they are able to sustain it in tests.

Imagine a full attack of Starc/Cummins/Hazelwood/Pattinson vs Boult/Henry/Ferguson/Milne

 

[Sin Nombre]

Babar Azam at #8

Great talent.

Virat Kohli - best batter in the world no question.

Only PP likes to underrate him.

Ferguson's second ever over in international cricket.

Man I wanna see Milne and Ferguson bowl together.

But not against Pakistan.

[street cricketer]

Ha ha ha.

I'm loving it - hope that Warner, Smith and Wade get stuck playing ODI shots when they have a Test in 11 days time v Pakistan!

And if Hazlewood or Starc get injured, or even overworked.......

One could argue that their batsmen are in poor nick and the ODIs might get them going. Facing an attack of 150 k pacers will only do good to their preparation.

But yeah, their pacers are a bit fragile and they would be hoping they don't pick any injury in this tourney.

 

[Speedster777]

Well bowled Ferguson. This is what you need in Australia an express pace fast bowler or someone who can swing at deceptive pace. Sohail and Imran type trundlers would be smashed. Amir has to step up since he's the only fast bowler capable of winning matches he just need to find his form.

 

[QalandarFan]

19 overs

 

[QalandarFan]

Neesham is not a good bowler averages - 36 and defiantly not a good batsman averages - 20 maybe if you those numbers were inverse he'd be a good all-rounder.

Don't get why he is playing, horrible bowler and horrible batsman. Just got lucky with this wicket too.

If there is another World XI match, I don't care about quality.. I want to see a bowling attack of Rabada, Starc, Ferguson, Milne and Cummins.

The batsmen will have zero time to settle down

You seem to be another one of those statistics obsessed posters.

Yes, those numbers aren't great but you've got to take into consideration the amount of injuries he's had and the time span between the games he plays.

Mitch Marsh run out

 

[street cricketer]

Australian commies hyping up Virat Kohli and Babar Azam together already.

 

[QalandarFan]

How Unlucky that is!

 

[Justcrazy]

four down

 

[Aman]

Bring on Ferguson, I want to see him bowling to the tail..

 

[MMHS]

Looks like Mitch is one of those sinners whom you can't even drag to haven!!!!

I would chuck in Varun Aaron or Wahab in place of Rabada if this world XI bowling attack is going to consist of the fastest bowlers in world cricket.

Wanna see Milne and ferguson bowling in tandem. Should be the fastest duo in cricket right now.

How this boy with <35 average in all 3 domestic formats represent AUS in ODI?

Smith's batting style is so ugly but he is such an amazing ODI batsman really!

They'll try to probably outdo the other too.

Milne has some competition in the team now

Neesham was one of the few positives for New Zealand in their tour of India.

What competition? He should walk in ahead of that trundler grandhomme. Your ODI bowling attack should be

Lockie
Milne
Boult
McClenaghan/Southee/Santner/Henry(depending on conditions)

 

[MMHS]

Maxwell has been dropped for "disrespectful" comments.

That's in playing XI - how Head makes the squad of 15? I hope, he doesn't troll me with a 75, but he is below average even in Shield standard. Watched a little in SRL as well.
