A legendary career in the making.
A legendary career in the making.

Just 4 years into his international career, Rabada has already accumulated over 250 wickets across all the formats of the game. He has the ability to single-handedly decimate any batting line up and clearing up the tail in a jiffy. His pace and accuracy have been the reason for his success so far in his short but a good career.

Rabada was the no.1 ranked bowler in Tests for a while before being eclipsed by the ever consistent Jimmy Anderson. After 32 Tests, he averages 21.71 and has a strike rate of 39. These numbers put him against the greatest of fast bowlers ever to have played this great game.

At just 23 years of age, Rabada has time on his hands and if he continues in the same vein, he could land up as one of South Africa’s greatest. He has all the skills in the world to achieve what greats like Allan Donald or Shaun Pollock have achieved.
