Brian Lara

Any fan here?

Too bad he is a retired cricket player now, but he was a seriously good player. His 400* against England was really good.

He is one of the greatest cricket batsmen in the last 50 years, there is no doubt about it. Some may say his 400* was a selfish knock, but I think it was a legendary knock.

I have to be honest, when his 375 was broken by Mathew Hayden (who scored 380) I never thought Lara would break it again!

Lara did it, he scored 400 runs (a milestone that no one has ever achieved in test cricket).

Yes, Lara also scored 501 in some first class game. He is definitely one of the best batsmen of all time. I have always been a fan of his aggressive batting.

Is there any video of Lara scoring 501*? I would love to witness that.
