Mulder Declaration Sparks Storm, Internet Slams Proteas | First Sports With Rupha Ramani | N18G In a moment that stunned the cricketing world, South Africa’s stand-in captain Wiaan Mulder declared the innings while batting on 367 — just 33 runs short of breaking Brian Lara’s legendary 400* in Test cricket. This wasn't just about runs; it was a statement. The South African said - the record should belong to the West Indies legend. But was it the right call? In this deep-dive, Rupha Ramani breaks down the context, the reaction from Dale Steyn and Tabraiz Shamsi, and the internet's shock over a decision that left fans divided. Was it maturity beyond his years — prioritizing team success over personal glory — or a massive missed opportunity in modern-day cricket? Watch the full breakdown. Also on the show, Novak Djokovic has entered the quarterfinals of Wimbledon. The Serb marched past Alex De Minaur in a thriller. But more than the win - It was Djokovic ending the "Federer Curse" that got everyone talking. What is the curse? India's women's side has qualified for the AFC Asian Cup 2026. The blue tigresses won all their games convincingly to script history. A contrasting story from the men's side. With a FIFA World Cup spot in contention, is this a wake-up call for the AIFF and the men's team? --- Mulder | Proteas | South Africa vs Zimbabwe Test Cricket | Test Match | Cricket | First Sports | Rupha Ramani | Firstpost | Sports News #mulder #porteas #southafrica #zimbabwe #firstsports #rupharamani #sportsnews #firstpost Firstpost is an Indian news and media website.
