2nd Test: De Jorzi, Stubbs, And Mulder Equal Rare Record As SA Take Control Against Bangladesh
Mahmudul Hasan Joy: All-rounder Wiaan Mulder struck a fine hundred and in the process helped South Africa equal a unique record -- three batters scoring their maiden Test hundreds for the first time in the same Test in 75 years -- as the visitors tightened their grip on the second Test against Bangladesh here on Wednesday.
Mulder scored an unbeaten 105 off 150 balls on the second day of the match and joined Tony de Zorzi (177) and Tristan Stubbs (106) as the third South African batter to reach three figures in the match, helping the visitors post a mammoth 573/6 declared in their first innings.
De Zorzi, Stubbs, and Mulder scored their maiden centuries in their fifth, eighth, and sixteenth Tests respectively, marking a rare occurrence as this is only the second time that such a thing has happened.
