Wiaan Mulder emulated Indian captain Shubman Gill to score a hundred on his first Test match as captain on Sunday. Leading South Africa in the absence of injured Keshav Maharaj, Mulder brought up his hundred against Zimbabwe on the first day of the second Test at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo. 

Mulder’s Gill connection came after the Indian skipper scored 147 in his first Test as a captain in Leeds during the first Test against England earlier in the month. Mulder also became the 33rd captain to score a hundred in a debut Test match as a skipper.
