Ferguson has been our best bowler by quite some distance during the World Cup and we looked quite clueless without him when Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow were going big. Lockie Ferguson combines raw pace with accuracy and has been the Black Caps best bowler at this World Cup. The Black Caps thrive on being underdogs and the string of three defeats mean we have regained that tag. If we keep making the semis chances are one day we will fluke a World Cup with two good games and it could be this time.
