Shubman Gill announces Kagiso Rabada's IPL 2025 comeback date

Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill provided an update about the availability of Kagiso Rabada for the remainder of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. He revealed the pacer will be joining the team in the next 10 days.

Gujarat Titans have been without the services of Kagiso Rabada for the last few days. The fast bowler, ahead of the game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, went back home due to personal reasons.

Kagiso Rabada, since then, hasn't been with the team, but thankfully, that hasn't cost them much as they have been doing a decent job. The pacer battery in Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Arshad Khan, and Ishant Sharma are doing great, and it is because of that the team is at the top of the points table.

Kagiso Rabada will come back in 10 days or so - Shubman Gill

However, at the toss of the ongoing game against Delhi Capitals, Shubman Gill provided an update about Kagiso Rabada. He said the pacer will be back with the team in two weeks. While talking about the team's strategy, he said:

"We will bowl first. It is very hot. The wicket looks very good. If you won't keep much grass, it would crack up. Things have been going well. We don't think much about the past. It is about turning up on the day. It takes a couple of weeks for the team to gel in. We are going with the same team. Hopefully, Rabada will come back in 10 days or so."

Kagiso Rabad played two games for Gujarat Titans, picked two wickets at 41.50

Kagiso Rabad played two games for Gujarat Titans and picked two wickets at an average of 41.50 and a strike rate of 24. The pacer also had an economy of 10.38 but considering the kind of impact that he has made over the years, one cannot write him off.

In the game against Punjab Kings, Kagiso Rabada gave away 41 runs for a wicket. And then against Mumbai Indians, he returned figures of 1/42. The South Africa National Cricket Team pacer was notably acquired by the franchise for INR 10.75 crore in the auction.

Kagiso Rabada's return will be a massive boost for the Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2025

Rabada's return will be a massive boost for the Gujarat Titans, especially with the tournament now moving into the business end. The Shubman Gill-led side is having a great time in the league and is looking for favourites to qualify for the playoffs.

Gujarat Titans are currently third on the points table and have won 4 out of the 6 games that they have played. They would be keen to win the ongoing game and go to the top of the table.
