From Durban To His Tamil Roots, Muthusamy's 109 Runs Tells The Story Of His Rise

South Africa's Senuran Muthusamy produced the finest knock of his Test career in Guwahati, crafting a gritty 109 off 206 balls to put the Proteas firmly in control on Day 2. Batting at No. 7, he absorbed pressure, stitched crucial partnerships-first with Kyle Verreynne, then Marco Jansen-and anchored South Africa past the 400-run mark. His century came off 192 balls, built with patience, discipline, and just the right bursts of aggression. He eventually fell to a bouncer, mistiming a pull straight to Yashasvi Jaiswal at fine leg.
