Standard Bank Proteas Test captain, Faf du Plessis, has described the 177-run win against Australia in the first Test at the WACA ground in Perth as ‘the best Test match of my career’. The Proteas put in a spirited performance with only two seamers after the injury to Dale Steyn, and go one-up in the three-match series which moves to Hobart later this week. Du Plessis was full of praise for his tenacious bowling unit, who never backed down despite the high workload and long spells on the final day. He made a special mention of the never-say-die attitude of man-of-the-match, Kagiso Rabada, who put in his longest spell of bowling at international level to lead from the front in the absence of Steyn. bizhub Highveld Lions all-rounder, Dwaine Pretorius, has been called up to the squad as a replacement for the injured Steyn. The Proteas travel to Hobart on Tuesday ahead of the second Test match starting at the Blundstone Arena on Saturday.
