South Africa’s pace sensation Kagiso Rabada is capable of giving nightmares to the opposition as he is pacy, skiddy and accurate. The right-arm quick can bowl inswingers and outswingers with both the new and old ball and also has nasty bouncers and toe-crushing yorkers in his kitty.

In his short career of four years in the Indian Premier League (IPL), the 25-year-old seamer hailing from Johannesburg has managed to stamp his authority by having a stunning 61 scalps to his name in just 35 games at an economy rate of 8.23. He is already considered as one of the greatest seamers in IPL and South Africa cricket.

Having frequently clocked the deliveries at a speed of 150 kmph+, Rabada has the skill and talent of bowling one of his deliveries at a lethal speed of 156.22 kmph+. As of now, his fastest delivery of all time is clocked at 154.23 kmph.
