Protea Captain Faf du Plessis says Warner behaved worse than Rabada

South African Test captain Faf du Plessis has staunchly defended pace sensation Kagiso Rabada and said David Warner acted far worse.

The Test series between South Africa and Australia increasingly seems like it might be remembered more for kerfuffles than cricket.

First, there was the near bust up between David Warner and Quinton de Kock, with one calling the other sook, one allegedly making “vile and disgusting” comments about the other’s wife and then fans took to wearing Sonny Billy Williams masks because Mrs. Warner once upon a time got to know the rugby player a bit intimately.

Ind vs SA: After AB de Villiers, Faf du Plessis ruled out of ODI, T20I series

South African skipper Faf du Plessis and batsman AB de Villers have been ruled out of ODI and T20Is series against India due to a finger injury.

Faf’s absence would be a massive blow for the hosts as their start batter AB de Villiers was already ruled out from first three ODI matches due to injury.

Faf du Plessis had injured his finger during the opening ODI match between India and South Africa in which he scored his ninth hundred to take the Proteas to 269/8. Following the mediocre target, visitors chased the total with ease and won the match by six wickets.

Wickets tumble as Proteas stage comeback to beat India

The fourth day of the first Test between South Africa and India at Newlands saw 18 wickets tumble as the home side staged a spirited comeback to take a 1-0 lead in the three match series.

Vernon Philander was destroyer-in-chief as he took a career best of 6/44, ably assisted by Morne Morkel and Kagiso Rabada as the home side ran through the Indian batting line-up to set up an important victory.

Having lost the whole of the third day to much-needed rain – as far as the drought-stricken region is concerned – the Proteas resumed the day with 65 runs on the board for the loss of two wickets with nightwatchman Rabada and Hashim Amla taking guard unbeaten on 2 and 4 respectively.

The veteran batsman was first to depart without adding on to his overnight score and was soon followed by Rabada who was caught by the visiting captain Virat Kohli off the bowling of Mohammed Shami for 5.
