Du Plessis averages 20 with the bat in the County Championship

Francois Du Plessis has spoken of how he is looking forward to scoring his first Championship ton for Lancashire.

The South African all-rounder has made two 50-overs centuries this season against Derbyshire and Essex.

"As soon as you score that first one, it's like a ceiling you've broken," he told BBC Radio Manchester.

"I did it in one-day cricket, scoring one - and two weeks later, I scored another. Hopefully this one will come soon so I can score a bit more then."

"I'm really pleased with my form this year, I've done really well so far, I think," he added.

"I've done it twice, scoring 100 within the one-dayers. I'm now looking forward to getting that first 100 in the County Championship for Lancashire."
