A genuinely quick bowler who can reach speeds of 145-150 kph on a regular basis, Rabada is one of the best fast bowlers at the moment. Rabada has express pace and produces disconcerting bounce that troubles the batsmen.

He became only the second bowler to take a hat-trick on ODI debut when he took a six-fer against Bangladesh in 2015. Since his debut (June 2015), he has taken 65 wickets in 40 ODI games with a very good strike-rate of 30.83.

Whenever Rabada bowls, he does so with pace and aggression. His emergence has certainly helped South Africa as he has become the leader of the attack. With age on his side, he can scale greater heights and possibly lead South Africa to World Cup glory in the future.
