IPL 2019: 3 South African pacers to watch out for

#1 Kagiso Rabada (Delhi Capitals)

Rabada will lead the attack with Boult for Delhi Capitals

Kagiso Rabada, the 23-year-old pace sensation, is a permanent member of the South African squad across all formats. He topped the ICC Test and ODI bowlers' charts in Jan 2018, and also became the youngest bowler to pick 150 Test wickets at the age of 23.

In 2018, Rabada took the most wickets in Tests, with 52 dismissals. He also became only the second player to take a hat-trick on ODI debut.

So far, Rabada has picked 176 Test wickets from 37 matches and 98 ODI wickets from 62 matches. He constantly hits the mid-140s with the ball and he is known for his raw pace.

Rabada made his IPL debut in 2017 for the Delhi Daredevils. But he had a mediocre first season with just 6 wickets in 6 matches. He didn’t participate in IPL 2018 due to an injury.

Delhi Capitals would expect him to bounce back in this season. He will lead the bowling attack along with Trent Boult, and there is no doubt that this pair is going to be a nightmare for any batting lineup.
