Wiaan Mulder ‘coming of age’ as Test bowler for the Proteas
The Proteas all-rounder has been described as being in 'phenomenal form' during the series against Australia.
Ryan Rickleton, wicket-keeper for the Proteas cricket team, has been impressed with the recent performance of all-rounder Wiaan Mulder with the red ball in the Test series against Australia. Rickleton described Mulder's form as "phenomenal" and attributed his improvement to the responsibility given to lead the attack and open the bowling.
In the first Test in Durban, Mulder took 4/68 in the first innings and 0/24 in the second innings. In the second Test in Gqeberha, he returned with 2/14 and 3/64. When Kagiso Rabada was absent, Mulder opened the bowling in the second Test, while Rabada was first change in the third Test. With Rabada back in the side, Rickleton expects Mulder to play a significant role in the upcoming third Test in Cape Town.
