Kagiso Rabada, a star fast bowler in the Indian Premier League, has been impressed by Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s six-hitting abilities, despite being on the receiving end of his shots. Sooryavanshi, a young talent, hit Rabada for consecutive sixes in a recent match, showcasing his fearless approach to batting. Rabada praised Sooryavanshi’s talent and described him as an X-factor player with lightning-fast hands and no fear.
Rabada and Mohammed Siraj have formed a formidable new ball partnership this season, with Rabada’s pace and bounce complementing Siraj’s seam and swing. Rabada, who has consistently clocked speeds of 150 kmph, surpassed the 20-wicket mark for the fourth time in his IPL career. He attributed his success to focusing on doing his best for his team, Gujarat Titans, without getting caught up in statistics.
Rabada also discussed the trend of bowlers using traditional Test match lengths in T20 cricket, citing Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s success with a similar approach. He emphasized the importance of bowling well to get wickets and refrained from commenting on the quality of batting in the league. Rabada’s performance has been instrumental in Gujarat Titans’ success this season, as they aim to secure a spot in the playoffs.
