Wiaan Mulder became the fifth-highest scorer in a Test innings and surpassed Hashim Amla's 311* to record the best score by a South African batsman.

Wiaan Mulder's record-breaking 367* against Zimbabwe was overshadowed by his decision to declare, denying himself a shot at Brian Lara's 400*. This sparked criticism, notably from Chris Gayle, who argued Mulder missed a golden opportunity.

South Africa captain Wiaan Mulder declared on himself this morning, 33 runs shy of Brian Lara ’s record for the highest individual score in a Test innings. Captaining South Africa for the first time as they faced Zimbabwe, he was 367 not out at lunch in the second day of the second Test.
