Rabada ended the year as the Number 1 bowler in the ICC Test Rankings for bowlers with 882 points. He also emerged as the highest wicket-taker in Test cricket with 52 wickets in 10 games. His bowling average of 20.07 made this feat all the more remarkable.

He was one of the very few bowlers who picked up 10 wickets in a Test match in 2018. He had earlier been sidelined for three months due to lower back stress in April which kept him out of the IPL. The young bowler won as many as 6 awards in the CSA Awards which comprised of the following awards: Cricketer of the Year, Test Cricketer of the Year, ODI Cricketer of the Year, Players' Player of the Year, Fans' Player of the Year, Delivery of the Year.
