Shubman Gill vs Kagiso Rabada IPL records
Gill, who will be facing South Africa fast bowler Kagiso Rabada first up in the powerplay, has only scored 12 (23) at a strike rate of 52.17 in five T20 innings against the right-arm pacer. Yet to hit a boundary off Rabada in the IPL, it would be interesting to see how Gill plays him at the Braboune Stadium tonight.
