In a match that will be remembered for years, Wiaan Mulder has just rewritten the record books.
The South African all-rounder lit up the field in Bulawayo on Monday with an extraordinary knock that surpassed one of the most iconic feats in Proteas history.
Breaking Amla’s Longstanding Record
For over a decade, Hashim Amla held the title for the highest individual Test score by a South African batsman—a jaw-dropping 311 not out against England at The Oval back in 2012.
But Mulder had other plans. On a hot day in Zimbabwe, he cruised past Amla’s record with a cool composure that had fans and teammates alike in awe.
It wasn’t just a good day with the bat—it was a career-defining moment.
Eyes on Brian Lara’s All-Time Benchmark
With Amla’s milestone behind him, Mulder now finds himself within sight of an even loftier target: Brian Lara’s legendary 400 not out, the highest Test score in cricket history.
That record was set against England in 2004 in St John’s, and it’s a mark that has withstood challenge after challenge over the past two decades.
Could Mulder really be on track to match—or even beat—it?
A Developing Story Still Unfolding
As Mulder’s epic innings continues to unfold, cricket fans around the world are glued to their screens.
The match is still in progress, and all eyes are on whether he can carry this momentum even further.
Updates on this record-breaking performance are still coming in, so stay tuned for more.
