Starting in Visakhapatnam on October 2, South African skipper Faf du Plessis is looking forward to a challenging three-match Test series against world No. 1 India. Minus Hashim Amla and Dale Steyn, Du Plessis is happy leading South Africa's generation next and believes the start of the World Test Championship for the Proteas will see the birth of new leaders. With 58 Test caps, du Plessis is the joint-most senior member of the squad, alongside Vernon Philander. The skipper feels spin will play a key role in the series and Keshav Maharaj will supplement South Africa's quality pace attack led by the talented Kagiso Rabada. (Video courtesy: CSA)
