GT vs DC Live: Lockie Ferguson emerges GAME-CHANGER for Gujarat Titans, bags four wickets against DC
- Lockie Ferguson finished with 28/4 in his allotted 4 overs at a brilliant economy of 7 rpo.
- He quickly got rid of Tim Seifert and then broke the crucial partnership by dismissing Rishabh Pant at the crucial juncture.
- His mantra for success was 90 per cent short deliveries. The New Zealand bowler is able to bowl bouncers at a consistent pace of over 140 kmph.
- The 30-year-old was bought for Rs 10 crore, five times the amount of his base price after a tight bidding race by LSG, RCB and DC.
- He has now jumped to the top 10 spots in the latest IPL 2022 purple cap table.
“It was one of those nights and with the kind of bowling partners I have, makes things very easy for me. It’s great (to have a potent bowling unit) and helps to spread calmness in the group,”Lockie Ferguson said post-match after winning MOM.
The pressure was coming from both ends with the ball and it worked for us. I think it (bowling extra fast) is more of an instinct thing. There was a lot of bounce in the surface and I was looking to bang away on that hard length. Some gripped and it worked for me with Rishabh’s wicket. Was a good all-round performance from the bowlers. Hardik is always giving us confidence to play the game that we want to play and it’s nice to have a captain who trusts your skills,” he added.
