Live text commentary as South Africa's Wiaan Mulder declares near a Test cricket record on the second day of their second Test against Zimbabwe.

South Africa’s Wiaan Mulder passed up the chance to set an individual record score in men’s test cricket Monday by declaring 33 runs short of Brian Lara's 400 set in 2004. The South Africa captain was on 367 not out in the second test against Zimbabwe and within sight of Lara's longstanding benchmark.

South Africa stand-in captain Wiaan Mulder felt he had no right to dislodge West Indies great Brian Lara from the summit of highest test innings scores and decided to declare his team's innings against Zimbabwe when he was 34 runs short of breaking the record.

Sri Lankas explosive opener, Sanath Jayasuriya, is best known for his limited-overs exploits, but his 340 against India in 1997 remains one of the greatest innings in Test cricket. His knock came off 578 balls and was laced with 36 boundaries and 2 sixes.
