VIDEO: "HE'S LYING IN BED WITH MY SISTER," FAF DU PLESSIS'S HONEST RESPONSE ON ABSENCE OF HARDUS VILJOEN

South African Test captain Faf du Plessis's honest response to a question on why a player will not be playing a Mzansi Super League (MSL) game is leaving internet in splits.

At the toss of a match between Paarl Rocks and Nelson Mandela Bay Giants, Du Plessis was asked about changes in the team by the presenter. He said fast bowler Viljoen won't be playing. "Hardus Viljoen not playing today because he's lying in bed with my sister as they got married yesterday," Du Plessis said.

The video of the same has been shared widely on Internet. Up on seeing Faf's honest approach, fans couldn't help but chuckle at the incident.

"Never heard anything like this before," commented one Twitter user. "Man that's some serious roasting from the bride's brother. Wishing the newlyweds a lifetime of happiness," wrote another.

Viljoen tied the knot with Du Plessis's sister Remi Rhynners on Saturday after dating for almost one year.
