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.

Wiaan Mulder, who stopped short on Monday of attempting to break the record for the highest score in Test history, had an inauspicious start to his Test career. On Monday he went past Len Hutton (364) and Garry Sobers (365 not out) -– two all-time greats who both held the record for the highest score for many years.
