The spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of the two-dimensional hole gas in the inversion symmetric semiconductor Ge is studied in a strained-Ge/SiGe quantum well structure. We observed weak anti-localization (WAL) in the magnetoconductivity measurement, revealing that the WAL feature can be fully described by the k-cubic Rashba SOI theory. Furthermore, we demonstrated electric field control of the Rashba SOI. Our findings reveal that the heavy hole (HH) in strained-Ge is a purely cubic-Rashba-system, which is consistent with the spin angular momentum mj = +-3/2 nature of the HH wave function.
