Introducing the first episode of a (hopefully ongoing) new interview series on The Agenda 'Off The Long Run'. This isn’t your typical podcast packed with “raw, honest chats” or viral clips of emotional breakdowns. Instead, it's a collection of great New Zealanders sharing some truly memorable stories from their lives in sport.
Opening up, 'Off The Long Run' is Great NZer and Black Caps Fast Bowler Lockie Ferguson aka The Whakamana Express!
Lockie chats about how he got his ACC Nickname "The Whakamana Express" (00:30), what it feels like to be one of the fastest bowlers in the world (09:30), and whether there is still hatred between players at the international level since T20 franchise cricket has taken over (17:00). Plus, Lockie clears up his Black Caps availability (20:30).
Then, for some reason, ACC Head G Lane put Lockie through the pivotal moments of the 2019 CWC Final (22:35)...
Next, Lockie talks about his new project 'Yorker Co' and mentoring young fast bowlers and the best ways to manage future injuries (31:30).
Finally, G Lane puts The Whakamana Express through the infamous '22 in 2' questions (40:30)!
