WATCH : Rabada knocks over Virat Kohli's stumps with a peach

World cricket has high hopes from Kagiso Rabada, as the young South African pacer is well on his way to becoming one of the premier fast bowlers in the world.

While he has bowled quite well in the series so far, Rabada has truly exploded in the third test. The youngster looked a class apart, as he constantly troubled the Indian batsmen in the test match.

Rabada took full advantage of the treacherous Wanderers pitch, as he beat the batsmen on more than one occasion. He eventually beat the Indian skipper, as Rabada got the price wicket of Virat Kohli.

Rabada got a ball to hit the deck and move a mile, as it went through the defense of Virat Kohli.

The third day of the Johannesburg test match between India and South Africa was expected to be keenly fought between the two sides.

India had shaded the previous two days, as Virat Kohli’s men were in a strong position heading into the third day. While the pitch was expected to assist the bowlers, no one could have expected the ball Wanderers pitch to spit fire throughout the first session.

South Africa started really well, as Morkel and Philander picked up early wickets to put India on the back foot early on. It took Vijay’s resolute defense and Kohli’s brilliance to put together a partnership, as the pair steered India towards 100.

Both batsman suffered blows to their fingers, as the ball jumped off a good length and crash into their bodies. The umpires had to stop play, and asked both captains if they wanted to continue.

Eventually they continued, but not without doubts lingering over the state of the pitch.

Kohli looked imperious though, as he was the only person who played any degree of control in the innings. His stroke play was gorgeous as usual, as Kohli played a couple of stunning cover drives to entertain the fans.

But Rabada eventually got his man, as the pacer broke their Kohli’s defence. The Indian skipper was visibly impressed, as he was surprised by the quality of Rabada’s delivery.
