Temba Bavuma has created history with a Test record that no captain has achieved in 148 years of Test cricket, all while staying undefeated
Since taking charge, Bavuma has led South Africa in 12 Test matches winning 11 and drawing 1. That means zero defeats so far in his leadership journey
The historic moment came after South Africa completed a 2–0 Test series clean sweep against India, extending Bavuma’s unbeaten streak as captain
Before Bavuma, the special record was held by Mike Brearley, who won 10 matches without a defeat between 1977 and 1979
Bavuma has now surpassed that mark with 11 Test wins and 1 draw, making him the only captain in history to win more than 10 Tests without losing
In the toughest format of the game, Bavuma’s leadership has already entered the history books proving that consistency, composure, and belief build legends
