The lanky moustache topping the 6 ft tall muscular body of Lockie Ferguson is how New Zealand’s pace attack looks like. Born in Auckland, Lockie Ferguson stands as one the fastest bowlers New Zealand has ever produced. He has been sensational throughout his career and has managed to establish himself in the international circuit in almost no time. Next up for him is his IPL stint with the Kolkata Knight Riders, where he would look to stamp his authority after a not so impressive season with the Rising Pune Supergiants last time around.
