South Africa rising speedster Kagiso Rabada has expressed that he wants to nail down a spot in his country's Test team, while describing the longer format as the pinnacle of cricket.
Rabada, who made a stunning entry to ODI cricket by picking up a hat-trick on his debut in Bangladesh, downplayed that performance and insisted that it was important to keep working in order to play for a long period of time, Sport24 reported.
The 20-year-old further said that his dream was to play for his country, adding that the ultimate format was Test cricket, wherein a player's true game and abilities are tested.
Rabada has been chosen in the squad for this month's limited over series against New Zealand, which includes two T20s and three ODIs.
