Mulder’s 367* Leads South Africa to Heaviest Zimbabwe Test Defeat in 20 Years
On July 7, 2025, South African stand-in captain Wiaan Mulder delivered a historic performance against Zimbabwe in the second Test at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo, scoring an unbeaten 367 runs. His innings, the fifth highest in Test history and the highest ever by a South African, included 49 fours and 4 sixes and surpassed multiple records such as the highest score by a No. 3 batter and the highest score on captaincy debut. Despite being just 33 runs short of Brian Lara's 400 not out, Mulder chose to declare the innings at 626/5 to prioritize winning the match, a decision that sparked debate but reflected his respect for the game and Lara's record. Mulder's declaration led to Zimbabwe's collapse and an innings defeat inside three days, extending South Africa's winning streak to a record 10 consecutive Tests. Mulder's performance was also personally significant, as he surpassed the record of Hashim Amla, his former coach, whom he acknowledged with respect. This series marked South Africa's first Test tour of Zimbabwe in 11 years, though the matches were excluded from the World Test Championship.
