Ashwin bowled a short-of-a-length delivery that jagged back in sharply. Faf du Plessis looked to play it on the leg side but missed, with the ball striking him on the back pad as the umpire raised his finger. The right-hander opted for a review, but ball-tracking showed the umpire&#8217;s call on wickets hitting, and the decision was upheld.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>Watch the clip of the wicket below:<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/faf-du-plessis\/news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">42-year-old<\/a> played a solid knock, scoring 79 off 51 balls, including nine fours and a six.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>R Ashwin\u2019s Dublin Guardians endure fourth straight defeat in ETPL 2026<\/h2>\n<p>Rotterdam Dockers captain Faf du Plessis won the toss and invited the Dublin Guardians to bat first.
