When will he be back?  PS most likely next week as he is now in India :hmmm:

 

"

Kagiso Rabada's departure from IPL 2025 on April 3 was related to a sanction for testing positive for a banned substance. ESPNcricinfo has learned that Rabada's transgression took place during the SA20, during which he represented MI Cape Town, and that he had used a recreational drug and not performance-enhancing drug."

Rabada hasn't done much and his attitude is more like Steyn's was for IPL. They think IPL is a vacation and an easy paycheck for them and never really tried hard in IPL. I say let Rabada go and penalize him for breaking the rules.

To me he never looked liek he wanted to be in IPL. Always looked as if he was showing up for a paycheck. Very similar feeling to when I used to see Steyn in IPL which Steyn confirmed himself.

Styne was nt a good white ball specially t20 bowler he only had out swing he never developed any other ball just fearing he can lose the natural outswing.

It was easy to line him up specially when batters knew that the ball is not going to come-in (for rh batter) and v.likely nt a yorker.

Steyn was not at all good in whiteball cricket.He with Vernon probably costed SA a world cup in 2015.

He is not banned. He is already back in India for IPL. No one should be banned for recreational drug use.
