In a special mid-week episode, we speak with writer Rohit Sankar about South African cricketer Faf du Plessis who recently retired from test cricket. We talk Faf's standout moments in tests, his captaincy tenure, and the larger legacy he leaves behind. Towel-clad Faf defusing a volatile situation will be missed for sure.

Bonus: we also talk Ravichandran Ashwin's momentous achievement of 400 test wickets.
