Kagiso Rabada was suspended from cricket only six weeks ago, halfway through a passage in the Indian Premier.
Wednesday, the designer of South Africa received a standing ovation from the crowd at the Lord’s Cricket Ground in London.
The distinction was for Rabada with the final of the world test championship by taking 5-51 in 15.4 overs to help South Africa set up the reigning champion at 212 on the first day.
“You have always felt on this counter, any ball had made its name,” he said.
However, the South Africans did not have it all to do it because they were left in shock at 43-4 at the end.
Rabada caught the projectors at the end, taking two counters in the morning. The three counters after tea also earned him personal milestones.
His third counter of the day, the captain of bowling in Australia, Pat Cummins, equaled it with Allan Donald on 330 counters for fourth place on the list of tests of all time in South Africa. The fourth window, beautiful webster, left Donald behind. The fifth ticket office, Mitchell Starc, gave Rabada a five for and a second registration on the Lord’s councils of honor.
Whenever he finished the bowling alley and returns to patrol the border, Rabada was applauded by the large contingent of South Africa fans.
“It looks like a home game,” he said. “I’m just happy to be able to do a job there. We all started very well, I just received the awards today. ”
Everything happened better than Rabada and South Africa expected it after being tested positive for a recreational medication in January and having admitted it.
Rabada has undergone education programs that have reduced its three -month suspension to one month – April – in the midst of its IPL contracts in several million dollars.
The Hierarchy of Proteas and Cricket South Africa supported Rabada through the process and, after some criticism of the duration of the suspension, prepared it for any abuse during the WTC final.
If there were, he was suffocated by his success.
Just before leaving South Africa so that London plays in the final, he said about the suspension: “The greatest thing I removed is to have gratitude to play the game we love. I’m just happy to play again. ”
South Africa would say the same thing.
Australia, Steve Smith, in the meantime, hopes that the variable rebound in Lord’s will help them make more and more breakthroughs in the fragile range of fragments from South Africa on the second day
Smith has scored his first outing since March with 66 points and estimated that Australia was in the driving seat after the opening day. However, they now sought to capitalize on their advantage.
“I think the rebound will be variable throughout the match, as we have already seen the first day, so I hope that we can get a few counters early in the morning and cross them in a way and have a little ahead. This is the ideal scenario for us right now.”
Australia has 169 points in advance after a day during which 14 counters fell.
“I think we are in a good place. We have probably had some missed opportunities with the bat to try to get a bigger total, but I think the counter offered something all day.
“We could have spent a better day, but we are still in a good position,” he said after strains on Wednesday.
Smith, a prolific scorer at Lord’s, returned after a long vacation in which he said he had barely taken a bat.
“I felt good, I felt in a pleasant place. I love to strike here at Lord’s and I enjoyed my time while I was there but I left a few in the hangar, unfortunately.
“It was quite delicate, the counter had the impression of doing enough all day … probably a bit on the slowest side, then a type of zings.”
Smith was irritated to have been dismissed by the part -time spinner Aiden Markram, trying to hang it on the border, but obtaining a healthy advantage to slide.
“I always try to understand how I did this,” he said.
