New Zealand coach Gary Stead hopes Lockie Ferguson can make the difference against India after revealing the pace bowler should be fit for their World Cup semi-final clash on Tuesday.
The Black Caps were without their leading wicket-taker in their final group-stage game where they suffered a 119-run defeat to England at Chester-le-Street.
Ferguson has been a standout performer for New Zealand in the tournament as they finished fourth in the standings, taking 17 wickets to sit joint-third in the table for the most wickets taken.
