BULAWAYO, Zimbabwe (Reuters) -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.

Wiaan Mulder slammed an unbeaten 367 on his captaincy debut in the 2nd Test against Zimbabwe at Bulawayo on Monday. Mulder set the record for the highest individual score by a South Africa batter in Tests,

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.
