South Africa star pacer Kagiso Rabada has expressed his concerns over the amount of matches being played in a year.
“It is a concern with the amount of cricket that’s being played. It needs to be managed. Plans need to be made accordingly. You can feel it in the intensity of your play. It’s not where you want it to be and it catches up with you over time. Playing international cricket, you want high intensity more often than not. It’s just a challenge that needs to be me,” said Rabada as quoted by The Indian Express.
“It’s been a long year. I’ve been lucky enough to play with Dale (Steyn), Vernon (Philander), Morne (Morkel), and Kyle Abbott; some greats of the game. You’ve got Lungi and Marco and Anrich now, who are bowling extremely well and have a good taste of international cricket. I’ve bowled in tandem with them for a decent amount of time now for us to know each other and communicate as a group. Times just have to move on,” added the pace spearhead.
