The South African cricket team, the Proteas, are concerned about Kagiso Rabada's right hamstring injury ahead of their busy home summer schedule. Rabada, who finished as the top wicket-taker in the Indian Premier League, has not played cricket since the IPL and was not part of the recent MLC or The Hundred tournaments to stay fresh. His injury occurred during a winter training program, and he will undergo further assessments before facing Australia in an upcoming ODI series. Proteas coach Shukri Conrad expressed confidence in Rabada's physical and mental readiness for the season. Meanwhile, all-rounder Senuran Muthusamy is also sidelined due to a lower-back spasm, adding to the team's injury concerns.
