Why Does Faf Du Plessis Wear Pink Gloves?
Faf du Plessis highest score: The former South African captain has kick-started his Royal Challengers Bangalore career with a half-century.
During the third match of the ongoing 15th season of the Indian Premier League between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Dr DY Patil Cricket Academy, Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Faf du Plessis scored his 23rd half-century in the tournament in his first match for the franchise.
Why du Plessis wear pink gloves?
du Plessis, who wears pink gloves white batting and even has a pink sponsor sticker on his bat, does the same not because of any particular reason. South African manufacturing company IXU Sports, who sponsor du Plessis’s equipment, use the color pink. That’s all about it.
While du Plessis had once donated his pink jersey and bat to raise funds during the COVID-19 pandemic, him using pink gloves in the general run of things has nothing to do with it.
It is worth mentioning that the South African team wears pink jersey during their ODIs in Johannesburg to raise awareness for breast cancer.
