A relaxed Faf du Plessis sat before the media on Thursday as the Proteas take on England in the second Test at Newlands.

With a series lead after a dominant 107-run win against England in Centurion, the Proteas should only be able to improve from here on out.

Du Plessis answered questions about transformation, Rassie van der Dussen’s stand-out qualities, what can be expected from the Newlands pitch, Vernon Philander playing in his final match at Newlands and more, in the captain’s presser ahead of the 2nd Test.
