How to find class parameter datatype at runtime in scala

import scala.reflect.runtime.universe
import scala.reflect.runtime.universe._

def getType[T: TypeTag](obj: T) = typeOf[T]

case class Thing(
  val id: Int,
  var name: String
)
val thing = Thing(1, "Apple")

val dataType = getType(thing).decl(TermName("id")).asTerm.typeSignature

dataType match {
 case t if t =:= typeOf[Int] => println("I am Int")
 case t if t =:= typeOf[String] => println("String, Do some stuff")
 case _ => println("Absurd")
}

Not able to digest why result is Absurd instead of I am int?

My aim is to know data-type of class parameter at runtime and match it to predefined types.
