South Africa`s stand-in captain Wiaan Mulder declared the innings after scoring an unbeaten 367 runs in 334 balls. His knock included 49 boundaries and four maximums. He was just 33 runs away from breaking Brian Lara`s record of the highest-ever individual score in the history of Test cricket.

Wiaan Mulder sacrificed a shot at one of cricket's most hallowed records to start mopping up Zimbabwe in the second test at Queens Sports Club on Monday.

Wiaan Mulder declared South Africa's innings at 367*, choosing to honor Brian Lara's 400-run record. Like Mark Taylor's 1998 gesture for Bradman, Mulder put legacy and respect above personal glory, earning widespread admiration.
