Takes six wickets on debut

Joins Team0 Comments

Rabada’s figures of six wickets for 16 runs are the best by any bowler on his one day international debut and the best by a South African bowler in any one day international. He is only the second bowler to take a hat trick in his debut match and the third South African overall to take a hat trick.

It is great to do well for your team and put them in a position to win the game. The hat trick ball … I didn’t know where to bowl. I was thinking bouncer or just a normal good length ball, but then I just went yorker. I missed it by miles. It was a bit of fluke but I will take it.
