Gill Reveals How Many More Games Will Rabada Miss in IPL 2025
The ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has seen its fair share of surprises, and one of the most significant ones has been the departure of South African pace sensation Kagiso Rabada from the Gujarat Titans (GT) squad. The GT captain, Shubman Gill, has now revealed that Rabada will be taking 10 more days to recover and rejoin the squad, which means he could miss a few more games before making his return.
Rabada played the first two games for GT, showcasing his incredible skills on the field, but unfortunately, he was forced to leave the team due to personal reasons. The news of his departure was a significant blow to the GT squad, and fans were left wondering when they would see their star player back in action.
Speaking to the press, Gill shed some light on Rabada’s recovery timeline, stating that he would return to the squad in 10 days. This means that GT will have to navigate the next 10 days without their premier fast bowler, which could pose a significant challenge, especially considering the upcoming fixtures.
GT are scheduled to take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) over the next 10 days, which means that Rabada could miss these matches before making his return. This could be a major setback for the team, as both KKR and RR are strong contenders for the playoffs, and missing Rabada’s services could make it tougher for GT to secure wins.
However, Gill remained optimistic about the team’s chances, stating that they have a strong squad and are capable of handling the absence of Rabada. “We have a good balance in the team, and we’re confident that we can do well even without Kagiso,” Gill said. “We’ll just have to work together and support each other to get the results we want.”
Rabada’s absence has also raised concerns about GT’s bowling attack, which has been their strongest suit this season. The pace duo of Hardik Pandya and Varun Aaron has performed admirably, but the absence of Rabada’s pace and experience could be a significant loss.
Despite the challenges, GT fans remain hopeful that Rabada will make a swift recovery and return to the team soon. Rabada’s presence on the field has been a major boost for the team, and his return could be the spark they need to propel themselves into the playoffs.
In the meantime, GT will have to rely on their bench strength and squad depth to get the job done. The team has shown remarkable resilience throughout the season, and they will need to draw on that spirit to navigate the next 10 days without Rabada.
As the GT squad prepares to face KKR and RR, fans will be eagerly waiting to see how they fare without their star player. Will they be able to hold their own and secure wins, or will Rabada’s absence prove to be a major setback? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – GT will have to dig deep and find a way to overcome this challenge if they want to stay in the running for the playoffs.
