There are few better young talents in international cricket than Kagiso Rabada at the moment. The South African fast bowler has taken international cricket by storm and having listed himself for the first time in IPL, he will be looking to do the same in the tenth edition of the tournament.

Capable of bowling fast, swinging the new ball while also being accurate with his yorkers and slower balls, Rabada is every captain's dream bowler, especially in T20s. The 21-year-old could be just what the doctor ordered for RCB, especially considering their lack of options especially at the death overs.

Even with a base price of INR 1 crore, Kagiso Rabada is worth every penny and with the extra cash coming in from Starc's decision to forego the IPL, RCB certainly have the purse to go for him. Should they get him, he could well be the player who gets them their maiden IPL title.
