Last month Bangladesh were playing a gradually improving Zimbabwe when Mr du Plessis heard that the visitors’ captain had sent a fielder far down to fine leg after the Zimbabwe batsman Charles Coventry had smashed a four. “A sixth sense told me it was a double bluff,” Dean said.

“He wanted to give the impression that the next ball would be a bumper, to make Coventry use a hook shot.” As he suspected, the next Bangladeshi ball was a sneaky yorker.
What a genius!
