How good is that U19 opening bowler for SA.......Rabada......man he looks the real deal. I saw him destroy the WI top order with 3 for 14 and in yesterdays semi he destroyed the Oz side with 6 for 27.
Tall lad with a great action and plenty of aggression.......the kid was bowling 142kph as a 18 year old.
This kid will be a Protea in the near future
Bloody awesome! Rib-cage targetting is something Morne Morkel should have started years ago, this kid with the same bounce is onto it and I also liked how he slipped in a yorker once he had them on the back foot.
That said I think he is work in progress and could easily go to a much higher level. With Beuden Hendricks already in the mix Protea cricket is well served with bowling stock.
Those Oz bats were shit scared of him.......bowling 142kph on a flat UAE pitch.......imagine the speed he will get to in a few years time on a quick SA or Oz pitch?
Loved his aggression as well, he has a mean streak.
Certainly one to keep an eye on.
There are some handy cricketers in that squad........the top 4 bats look good, captain Markram in particular
I was wrong, he is 18
Watch him in the final on Sat, when we take on Pakistan
