CRICKET NEWS - Kagiso Rabada took on the responsibility of leading the attack in the absence of Morne Morkel in spectacular style as South Africa thrashed Bangladesh by 333 runs with time and overs to spare on the final day of the first test match at Senwes Park on Monday.
Rabada needed just 19 balls to blow away what was left of the Bangladesh top order with three wickets, including that of captain Mushfiqur Rahim to the third ball he sent down.
For good measure, Rabada also produced a bullet throw from the deep for a run out before Keshav Maharaj wrapped up what was left of the innings to finish with seven wickets in the match.
This gave him 50 wickets in only 12 test matches to put him on the list of South Africa’s top performers to this landmark.
