In South Africa's first innings, all-rounder Corbin Bosch played an unbeaten knock of 100 runs off 124 deliveries, which was laced with 10 boundaries. Later, in Zimbabwe's second innings, the 30-year-old claimed five wickets by conceding 43 runs in 12 overs (Pic: File Pic)
With this, he became the fourth South African —and first since Jacques Kallis in 2002 —to smash a ton and register a five-wicket haul in the same Test match (Pic: X/@ProteasMenCSA) (Pic: X/@ProteasMenCSA)
Kallis had achieved the feat in October 2002, where he scored an unbeaten 139 runs and also picked five and two wickets in two innings, respectively, against Bangladesh. He also achieved the same feat against the West Indies in January 1999, where he scored 110 runs and an unbeaten 88 runs. With the ball, Kallis claimed two and five wickets in both innings, respectively (Pic: File Pic)
The other two South African players to reach the feat are James Sinclair and George Faulkner. Sinclair and Faulkner both achieved the feat against England in 1899 and 1910, respectively (Pic: File Pic)
