A talented utility back Inny-Christian Radebe, more commonly known as Inny, was born in Johannesburg and represented the Golden Lions at national youth competitions since primary school level.

Radebe signed a deal to join the Sharks academy after finishing high school, he made one appearance for the Sharks U19s in 2013 against Western Province U19 before joining them on a full-time basis.

He made four appearances for UKZN Impi during the 2015 Varsity Shield, scoring 44 points on the way, and picked up a "Player That Rocks" award in the final helping the side to silverware by beating Wits 29–24.

He was included in the Sharks Super Rugby squad for their 2016 season but suffered a meniscus tear after two appearances for the Sharks XV in the 2016 Currie Cup qualification series which ruled him out for a large part of the season.

He returned at the start of July to make further appearances in the Currie Cup competition.
