Wiaan Mulder has certainly made an imapct in the International cricket. Although the sample size is small, the player has been on everyone’s mind, especially after he got 367 runs against Zimbabwe in the test match.
While the whole world is discussing his great batting prowess, only few comment on his bowling. The player is blessed with a great arm, and can turn the game on it’s head with his bowling capabilities as well. From just 36 innings that player has 38 wickets to his name, which is commendable for an all rounder.
With years under his belt, Mulder is only going to get better with time. Hopefully he will turn into an all rounder powerhouse that Joburg Super Kings is looking forward to, in years to come.
