Rabada Cleared To Play After One-month Doping Suspension

The Proteas premier fast bowler Kagiso Rabada is free to play cricket again, having served a one-month suspension for failing a drug test during the SA20 earlier in 2025.

Rabada returned home from the Indian Premier League IPL in April and on Saturday admitted to failing a drug test, apologising for his actions.

The right-arm quick, second in the world Test bowling rankings, said he was serving a provisional suspension, but gave no other details.

On Monday, the South African Institute for Drug-Free Sport Saids confirmed Rabada tested positive for a recreational drug after an SA20 game between MI Cape Town and Durbans Super Giants on January 21.

They notified Rabada of his test result on April 1.
