As reported by the International Cricket Council (ICC), Faf du Plessis said, “Australia is our favourite team to play against. All the stuff that comes with playing them, on and off the field, I love that and I feel that brings the best out of us as a team and even us as South Africa, we love that fiery competition.”

Australian crowds have long been infamous for their aggression and du Plessis acknowledged the difficulty of the conditions. “It’s definitely not an easy place to travel. The crowds do play their part, they’re like a 12th man. Your mental capabilities and strength are just as important as your skill. For a lot of the new guys, it will be the first time where they field on the boundary and they hear just how good they are as human beings. That will be a new thing for them,” South African added

 

Faf du Plessis also elaborated on the possible comeback of pacer Chris Morris and said, “He’s got so much X-factor as a white-ball cricketer, and this is an important tour for him to make sure he starts getting it right in terms of consistency. We know on his day he’s as good as any player in the world.”
