Punjab Kings fast bowler Kagiso Rabada has returned home from the Indian Premier League 2024. He will not not be available for the remaining two matches in the 17th season. With Punjab already out of the playoff race, his absence will not impact the Sam Curran-led franchise.
According to Cricket South Africa, the star pacer is suffering from a lower limb soft tissue infection.
