**Proteas Hand Debuts to Senokwane, Subrayen in Second Test Against Zimbabwe**

BULAWAYO – South Africa will field two debutants in the second Test against Zimbabwe, starting Sunday in Bulawayo. Opener Lesego Senokwane and spinner Prenelan Subrayen are set to make their Test bows, as the Proteas look to build on their dominant 328-run victory in the first match.

Senokwane, a 28-year-old batsman from the Free State Knights, will open the batting alongside Tony de Zorzi, replacing Matthew Breetzke in the lineup. Senokwane earned his call-up after a strong season, scoring 559 runs, including two centuries, in the 4-Day Series.

Subrayen, a 31-year-old off-spinner from the KZN Dolphins, will also make his debut, stepping into the side to replace the injured Keshav Maharaj. The experienced spinner has an impressive first-class record, with 242 wickets in 77 matches.

Spinner Senuran Muthusamy also comes into the side with fast bowler Kwena Maphaka making way.

All-rounder Wiaan Mulder will captain the side in Maharaj’s absence.

**Proteas XI:** Tony de Zorzi, Lesego Senokwane, Wiaan Mulder (c), David Bedingham, Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Dewald Brevis, Kyle Verreynne, Senuran Muthusamy, Corbin Bosch, Prenelan Subrayend, Codi Yusuf.

Ahead of the match, batsman Lhuan-dre Pretorius expressed his eagerness to get back to the crease, admitting he “gets really bored” when not batting. All-rounder Corbin Bosch reflected on his standout performance in the first Test, where he notched up both a maiden Test century and a first five-wicket haul.
