Скачать или смотреть EXPLAINED : Should WIAAN MULDER have declared?

Wiaan Mulder shocked the cricketing world on Monday (July 7) as he declared the innings for South Africa against Zimbabwe during the second Test at the Harare Sports Club while batting at 367 during the lunch break on the second day.


The South African start was just 33 runs away from making a 400, which would have marked just the second instance of a player reaching the milestone in the 148-year-old history of the sport

The only instance of a player scoring a quadrup century was Brian Lara, when he made an unbeaten knock of 400 against England at Antigua in 2004

While Mulder's declaration became a major talking point, the Proteas stand-in skipper broke his silence on the topic after the end of play on Day 2 and stated that he wanted to let Brian Lara keep the record and revealing that he had a chat with head coach Shukri Conrad

I thought we had enough and we need to bowl. Secondly, Brian Lara is a legend let's be real. He got 401, or whatever it was, against England For someone of that stature to keep that record is pretty special. I think if I get the chance again, I would probably do the same thing
