WATCH, CPL 2024 | Faf du Plessis taps into Rohit Sharma vibes World Cup celebration leading Saint Lucia to Victory

Saint Lucia's chase started with a solid opening partnership between Faf du Plessis and Johnson Charles. Despite a middle-order stumble, contributions from Ackeem Auguste and Tim Seifert helped. Roston Chase’s 39 and Aaron Jones' quickfire 48 off 31 balls sealed the win. Imran Tahir bowled a wide in the 19th over with one run needed, triggering celebrations as Saint Lucia won the title. The dugout burst into joy with Chase throwing fist pumps into the air.

As the celebrations reached their peak, Faf stepped forward to receive the much-coveted CPL trophy. The Proteas legend, known for his calm demeanour and leadership on the field, couldn’t resist adding a playful twist to the moment. In a lighthearted gesture, he mimicked Rohit Sharma's famous celebration from the ICC World T20 Final in June. With a cheeky grin, Faf deliberately wobbled as he made his way toward his jubilant teammates, imitating the theatrical walk that Rohit had showcased earlier in the year.

Oh Faf!
