South Africa fast bowler Kagiso Rabada's back injury could yet prove to be a "blessing in disguise", according to former Proteas paceman Allan Donald. At the age of just 22, Rabada is already on top of the International Cricket's Test bowling rankings and a key figure in a South Africa pace attack that has been having to do without the sidelined Dale Steyn. Rabada played a central role in South Africa's recent 3-1 Test series win over Australia -- their first on home soil against the Australians since re-admission. A bitterly-contested series saw Rabada successfully appeal against a ban for colliding with Steve Smith in Port Elizabeth that would have ruled him out of the final two Tests of a campaign that was overshadowed by the Australia ball-tampering scandal in Cape Town involving then-captain Smith, David Warner and Cameron Bancroft.
