NEW DELHI: Kagiso Rabada remains deeply resentful of the scheduling debacle that led to him and other senior players missing out on a crucial two-Test series against New Zealand earlier this year. Rabada expressed his frustration, emphasising that they were completely sidelined from the decision-making process regarding the "unacceptable" mismanagement.
The series, which formed part of the World Test Championship, saw the inclusion of seven uncapped players, while key players were preoccupied with the SA20 league back home. Neil Brand, thrust into captaincy, made his Test debut during the series opener in Mount Maunganui, where the hosts secured a predictable 2-0 victory.
