India vs South Africa Live Score, 2nd Test Day 2: Since making his Test debut in Vizag six years ago, Muthuswamy has found it hard to break into the national team. He has featured in only seven Tests over six years. Speaking to Cricbuzz, he said, "I was here in 2019 and picked up Kohli as my first Test wicket, which was an awesome experience."

"I feel like I'm a far better cricketer, all-around cricketer, now than I was in 2019. I've learnt a lot and grown quite a bit. I've played in varying conditions, not just South Africa but globally, and I think that's helped," he added.

India vs South Africa Live Score, 2nd Test Day 2: Kuldeep removed Stubbs on Day 1, for 49 off 112 balls. Speaking after Stumps on Day 1, Stubbs said, "I think a bit disappointing in the end there. I think all of us in the top six got in and no one’s really made that big one. I actually think I prefer batting at 3 than anywhere else. It (pitch) played quite nicely, but I think they bowled quite well. It was quite hard to score. But it wasn’t free-flowing. You felt comfortable, but the scoreboard wasn’t going anywhere. So I thought they bowled quite well."

"Every time he (Kuldeep) has come on, he’s sort of gone a bit slow with the first ball, and I managed to work his first ball of the spell. And if anything, it just beat me with the drift. I can’t believe Kuldeep got me out. Yeah (about playing Kuldeep in the nets for Delhi Capitals) and KL caught it. That makes your life that much more difficult. I think first-innings runs are going to be big. Hopefully Scholesy (Verreynne) and Sen (Muthusamy) can extend for as long as possible tomorrow and we can bat for as long as possible. And then bowl as best we can. I think that’ll be the game plan. Just extend the first innings for as long as we can. Hopefully the guys who come in now don’t give it away and get 40s, and someone can get 100," he added.
