Leading the Proteas as stand-in captain, Mulder\u2019s record-breaking innings not only secured the highest individual score by a South African in Test cricket but also set a new benchmark for the highest score in an away Test match.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Wiaan Mulder\u2019s Record-Breaking 367*<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">On July 7, 2025, Wiaan Mulder, stepping in as captain due to Keshav Maharaj\u2019s injury, delivered a batting masterclass at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo. His unbeaten 367 surpassed Hashim Amla\u2019s 311* (against England, 2012) to become the highest individual Test score by a South African. Mulder\u2019s knock, which came off just 347 balls, included 40 fours and 5 sixes, showcasing his aggressive yet composed approach against a struggling Zimbabwean bowling attack.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mulder\u2019s innings propelled South Africa to a commanding 626\/5 before their declaration, leaving Zimbabwe reeling. His performance was a blend of milestones, including the second-fastest triple century in Test history (297 balls, behind Virender Sehwag\u2019s 278) and the highest score by a Test captain on debut, overtaking Graham Dowling\u2019s 239 (New Zealand vs. India, 1968).<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Highest Individual Scores in Away Tests<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mulder\u2019s 367* now tops the list of highest individual scores in away Test matches, a record previously held by Pakistan\u2019s Hanif Mohammad. Here\u2019s how it compares:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"tight\" dir=\"ltr\" data-tight=\"true\">\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>367 \u2013 Wiaan Mulder (South Africa) vs. Zimbabwe, Bulawayo, 2025<\/em>*<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>337 \u2013 Hanif Mohammad (Pakistan) vs. West Indies, Barbados, 1958<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>336 \u2013 Wally Hammond (England) vs. New Zealand, Auckland, 1933<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>334 \u2013 Mark Taylor (Australia) vs. Pakistan, Peshawar, 1998<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>334 \u2013 Sir Don Bradman (Australia) vs. England, Headingley, 1930<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mulder\u2019s score not only broke Hanif Mohammad\u2019s 67-year-old record but also placed him among cricketing legends like Bradman and Hammond.
