Bangla National Cricket Stadium: All-rounder Senuran Muthusamy has earned a recall to South Africa’s 15-member squad for the Test series against Bangladesh in October. Muthusamy finds himself in a South Africa Test team for the first time since his last appearance in March 2023.

Muthusamy, 30, has three Test caps, and picked two wickets so far for South Africa. In all, he has taken 247 first-class wickets and amassed nearly 5,000 runs at an average of 30.41 in first-class cricket. He is one of three frontline spinners in the South Africa squad touring Bangladesh alongside Keshav Maharaj and Dane Piedt.

"We have three frontline spinners and all of them have the ability to step up at any time they are needed. This is a great chance for someone like Senuran, who has potential to make a mark with both bat and ball. We are really looking forward to seeing what he can offer,” said head coach Shukri Conrad.
