Rabada tested positive for cocaine, says South African testing agency
Kagiso Rabada's month-long suspension after he failed a drug test was because the fast bowler tested positive for cocaine, the South African Institute for Drug-Free Sport (SAIDS) has said. Rabada, who was with the Gujarat Titans (GT) when he returned home from the Indian Premier League in April, admitted failing a drug test and apologised for his actions. The 30-year-old, ranked number two in the Test bowler rankings, said he had returned an adverse analytical finding for the use of a recreational drug. Rabada had been tested in January when he was playing in the SA20 for MI Cape Town and SAIDS said in a report published this week that it detected the presence of Benzoylecgonine, a metabolite of cocaine. Rabada returned from his suspension to play two matches for GT, which finished third in the standings. He is due to spearhead South Africa's bowling attack in the World Test Championship final at Lord's when they face Australia from June 11-15.
