Faf du Plessis banned for one match
After winning the second Test against Pakistan and thereby winning the series, South Africa have been dealt a big blow as their captain Faf du Plessis has been banned for the third Test due to slow over-rate.
He was also fined 20 percent of his match fee by the ICC while the rest of the team were fined 10 percent of their match fees.
This will surely affect the South African batting line-up as Aiden Markram is struggling with a thigh injury while Hashim Amla was forced to retire hurt in the second Test against Pakistan.
