Posted by Aside from batting all day at one run an over to save Test matches, Faf du Plessis’s other thing is getting hit in the balls. You might say that he’s a specialist.
In the video below, he talks you through the countermeasures he has been forced to take. Here’s a link to the video as well because we’re 95 per cent certain that it won’t show up for email subscribers.

One hell of a nut case.
Is there anyone who can say things I agree with and make them sound more wrong than Ian Botham?

I haven’t yet worked out how the jokes work, so they must be super subtle.
Clearly the irony-missing-rabble haven’t got it yet either.
Is it all an allegory for Faf’s nads and the risk management thereof?
Didn’t think so.
I’ll keep pondering.
