Hindustan Surkhiyan Desk: Kagiso Rabada was not even in the dugout when the Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders IPL 2019 match was in its climax. Rabada, instead was in his shorts, sitting in the dressing room with teammate Shikhar Dhawan, thinking his side would comfortably win the match.
As it turned out, the match ended in a tie and a Super Over was required to separate the two sides.
“Was sitting upstairs with Dhawan and we were having chat that this game is ours but you know they say cricket is a funny game, so I said to Shikhar let’s go downstairs and support the guys,” said Rabada, who landed four perfect yorkers in the to defend the lowest Super Over total(10) in IPL history.
The South African fast bowler said, the choice was between him, Chris Morris and Nepal leggie Sandip Lamicchane and in the end, the management decided to go with him.
“So I was sitting there in my shorts and then obviously, the match was tied… I was just hanging around waiting to see who’s gonna bowl and James Hopes said ‘go put your stuff on’… I went upstairs, we still weren’t sure. Chris Morris had his clothes on, it was either me or him or I thought it could be Sandip too and then they said, it’s you.
