KG has done his time, welcomed back to Proteas with open arms

That's Proteas coach Shukri Conrad’s clear message after he included Kagiso Rabada in the 15-player Test squad to take on Australia in the World Test Championship final at Lord’s next month.

Conrad came out swinging in defence of his star fast bowler after Rabada recently served a one-month ban for failing a drug test. The 29-year-old talisman served his sanction between April 3 and May 3 and has since been cleared to play. And, at least according to Conrad, that’s all that matters.

“I’ve been engaging with KG ever since I learnt about it. I don’t know why it’s an elephant in the room, because I’m just thankful that the process that was followed was in line with what the world standards are,” Conrad said on Tuesday.

“So, it's not for me or anybody else to question whether the process that was followed was the legitimate one.
