South Africa captain Faf du Plessis is determined to make a "big play" at an Old Trafford ground he knows well when his side go in search of a series-levelling win in the fourth Test against England.
The Proteas head into the series finale, which starts today, 2-1 down with one to play after a 239-run loss at The Oval.
This upcoming Test has added meaning for du Plessis as it was during his time with Old Trafford-based county side Lancashire nearly a decade ago that saw the now 33-year-old batsman rekindle his desire for international cricket.
"I'm very thankful for my time at Lancashire, it played a big role in my journey to where I am today," Du Plessis said.
