2nd Test: Muthusamy’s 109, Jansen’s 93 Take South Africa To 489 Against India
Barsapara Cricket Stadium: Thanks to Senuran Muthusamy’s composed 109 and Marco Jansen’s blistering 93, South Africa went from a precarious 247/6 overnight to posting 489 on day two’s play in the second Test against India here at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium on Sunday.
While Muthusamy showcased his ability to bat sensibly, a trait he had displayed in Rawalpindi and Chattogram before, to hit 109 – his first Test century laced with 10 fours and two sixes, Jansen hit a sparkling 93 and used his long levers well to smash six fours and seven sixes to put South Africa in a strong position of winning the match.
For India, left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav finished with four wickets, while Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, and Ravindra Jadeja claimed two apiece. Simon Harmer was the only South African batter not to reach double figures in an otherwise commanding display for the Proteas.
