Cricket Viral Video: Faf du Plessis, a veteran opening batsman for the Perth Scorchers, made a significant cameo appearance in the Big Bash League's eighth game of the current 12th season against the Hobart Hurricanes at Launceston.

Du Plessis plays a fiery knock

Du Plessis gave his team a good start tonight by opening the batting with Adam Lyth (10) in a 173-run chase. He scored 32 (16) with the help of three fours and as many sixes at a strike rate of 200. Du Plessis' dismissal put an end to a 24-ball, 44-run opening stand. He was the first batter to be out while trying to continue his streak of boundary hits. Patrick Dooley of the Hurricanes, who was only in his third T20 match, took du Plessis for his second T20 wicket.
