Kagiso Rabada, a South African speed bowler, has gone home from the Indian Premier League for personal reasons, the Gujarat Titans, his team, stated Thursday. Despite Rabada playing two games in the IPL 2025, the Titans have not disclosed how long he will be out. The Gujarat group released a statement stating that Kagiso Rabada has returned to South Africa to attend to a significant personal issue. When Rabada played, he took 1 for 41 and 1 for 42 against the Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings, respectively.
At Wednesday’s Gujarat Titans vs. Royal Challengers Bengaluru game at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, the 29-year-old was left off the roster.
Early in the innings, Arshad Khan, a left-arm bowler, took the crucial wicket of Virat Kohli after Rabada was dropped from the starting eleven.
Without Rabada, GT might be depending on Afghanistan all-rounder Karim Janat or his South African counterpart Gerald Coetzee.
