Mulder Declares 33 Runs Short Of Lara’s Test Record; SA Post 626/5
Queens Sports Club: South Africa’s Wiaan Mulder passed up the opportunity to break Brian Lara’s long-standing record of the highest score in Test cricket by declaring the innings despite being only 33 runs short of the historic achievement.
Mulder’s outings at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo ranks fifth in the all-time list of highest score in a Test match with Lara topping the board for his 400* vs England at St John's in 2004. Australia’s Matthew Hayden and Sri Lanka’s Mahela Jaywardene are the other two batters on the list with the former West Indies skipper’s 375 vs England occupying the third spot.
Mulder, 27, is captaining the Proteas for the first time in the second Test of the two-game series vs Zimbabwe and was unbeaten at 367 when lunch was called. With South Africa having scored 626/5, the all-rounder decided to call curtains on their innings and did not go for a chance to enter the elusive 400-run club. His first inning total is now the highest individual score by a South African in Test history.

Despite that, skipper Pat Cummins backed the 26-year-old all-rounder as a long-term option at first drop, giving him a continued run during the three-match series in the Caribbean.
