Highest Individual Score In Test: South Africa all-rounder Wiaan Mulder slammed the second fastest triple hundred in Test cricket's history during the second Test match against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo on Monday.

The all-rounder also became the first-ever skipper to achieve this incredible accomplishment.

During the second Test match against Zimbabwe, Mulder reached his triple hundred in 297 balls, landing just behind Virender Sehwag, who played a whirlwind knock against South Africa in Chennai in 278 deliveries.

Wiaan Mulder also went past Hashim Amla’s 311* (vs ENG, 2012) to register the highest individual Test score by a South African.

With reaching 350, Mulder became the first South African captain to slam the highest score in Tests, toppling Graeme Smith’s 277 against England in Birmingham in 2003.
