Cricket:Various Innings by Brian Lara – 44 videos
Brian Lara
Brian Charles Lara, TC, OCC, AM of Trinidad & Tobago is a former West Indian international cricket player.
He is generally regarded as one of the greatest batsmen of all time. He topped the Test batting rankings on several occasions and holds several cricketing records, including the record for the highest individual score in first-class cricket, with 501 not out for Warwickshire against Durham at Edgbaston in 1994, which is the only quintuple hundred in first-class cricket history.
The BBC radio commentary on the final day of the innings, by Dave Roberts, was being broadcast around the world live via the BBC World Service network, and in the UK on BBC Radios 1, 2 & 4 as well as the majority of BBC Local radio stations. That evening, as Lara neared the all-time batting record, a huge surge of fans crowded to enter the ground.
Lara also holds the record for the highest individual score in a test innings after scoring 400 not out against England at Antigua in 2004.
