Injured Kagiso Rabada ruled out of England ODIs, South Africa wants pacer to be ready for Sri Lanka Tests

India Today  

Kagiso Rabada has been ruled out of the upcoming ODI series against England with a right abductor strain, South Africa officials said on Tuesday. Rabada played the first two T20Is of the ongoing three-match series against the visitors but did not feature in the series finale, which was a dead rubber as England clinched an unbeatable 2-0 lead. Rabada is expected to take about three weeks to recover and Rabada has therefore been released from the squad and bio-secure environment that is in place for the England tour, according to Cricket South Africa. South Africa want the pacer to take time away from the game and recover in time for the 2-match Test series against Sri Lanka at home which will be held from December 26 to January 7.
