After Disappointed Batting Performance by South Africa in 1st Test against Australia where they bundled out for 152 and 99 and lose the game by six wickets, star pacer Kagiso Rabada highlight that they have inexperienced batting line-up.
“The batting line-up that we have is quite inexperienced. In fact, the team that we have is relatively inexperienced if you look at other cricketing nations. Dean Elgar is our most experienced player followed by myself and Temba [Bavuma].
“I’ve played 50-odd Test matches and everyone else hasn’t played much. It can get frustrating as well and when I say frustrating I don’t mean to single out the batters, it’s frustrating as a team and you almost have to understand that sometimes this is what happens in a rebuilding phase,” Rabada said.
There needs to be an element of patience and understanding: Rabada
“So, there needs to be an element of patience and understanding but at the same time, you can’t advocate for bad performances. However, we’re quite positive.
If you don’t have the belief, then I don’t think we’d be able to go out and produce performances like we have. It’s all down to belief and I think we have the belief. We will never go down without a fight,” the cricketer added.
