Boucher steals show as Proteas assert authority
12 April 2012
Wicketkeeper Mark Boucher broke Ian Healy's record for Test dismissals as South Africa finished day three of the first Test against Pakistan 235 runs ahead with seven second-innings wickets remaining.
The 30-year-old overtook Australia legend Healy's mark of 395 when he stumped Umar Gul as Pakistan slumped to 291 all out in Karachi, a first-innings deficit of 159.
The wicket also gave spinner Paul Harris his first five-wicket haul in Test cricket as he registered figures of five for 73.
South Africa were then reduced to 76 for three at stumps thanks to two wickets from Test debutant Abdur Rehman, adding to his four from the first innings.
