South Africa's Wiaan Mulder scripted history with his sensational triple hundred in the ongoing second Test against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo. On Day 2 of the Test, in his side's first innings, Mulder completed his triple century.

The landmark came on the first ball of the 100th over, bowled by Tanaka Chivanga. It was a full toss delivery on the leg that Wiaan Mulder chipped away towards deep sqaure leg for a single to reach the 300-run mark.

He became only the second South African after Hashim Amla to score a triple century in Tests. Watch the moment of him getting to his triple century in a video posted by FanCode:

Notably, this is Wiaan Mulder's first Test as captain of South Africa. He took over the duties for the second Test after Keshav Maharaj was ruled out of the series due to a groin injury. With the second Test being the final one of the two-match series, Mulder has already made the most of his opportunity.
