Kagiso Rabada was suspended from the jack on 'drug use', IPL makes a statement on the absence of 2025

Exactly a month ago, Gujarat Titans Pacer Kagiso Rabada returned home from the 2025 season of India Premier League (IPL) and labeled the franchise cause as a 'personal' reason. However, the South African accelerator announced that he should return home because of the 'temporary suspension' on the use of drugs for entertainment purposes. Rabada made a statement that he would use it as an opportunity to reflect and improve himself while explaining the script. It is not yet certain whether Rabada will return to the GT before the end of the IPL season.

The following statement from Kagiso Rabada:

“As reported, I have recently returned to South Africa from joining IPL for personal reasons. The reason for this was that I returned a negative analytical finding for the use of an entertainment.”

“I'm deeply sorry for everyone I think. I will never accept the privilege of playing crickets. This privilege is much bigger than me. He goes beyond my personal wishes.”

“I provide a temporary suspension service and look forward to returning to my favorite game.”

“I couldn't leave it alone.

“In the future, this moment will not define me. I will continue to do what I do, I will work hard and play with passion and commitment to my craft.”

Kagiso.

Gujarat Titans, who has had an extraordinary season so far, made a statement about Rabada's return home last month. The Proteas Pace veteran was part of the first two IPL 2025 matches against GT's Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Mumbai Indians (MI), but since then.

“Gujarat Titans Pacer Kagiso Rabada returned to South Africa from the ongoing season of Tata IPL for some personal reasons. South Africa was part of the first two matches of Tata Titans of Gujarat Titans. Kagiiso Rabada returned to South Africa to deal with an important personal issue.”

In the absence of Rabada, Muhammad Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Ishant Sharma and Gerald Coetzee's likes had to share the burden of the Bowling attack for franchise.
