Happy Birthday to Brian Lara

[Real McCoy]

Happy Birthday to the best batsmen from the 90s era. If you dont dismiss him for less than 50, you are gonna chase leather all day. King of daddy hundreds. Classy player and a nice guy off the field as well. Here is one of the best knocks I have seen against a quality opposition

only a matter of poetic justice that  only  1 week separates Sachin's  birth day from that of Lara's by coincidence. After all they were that closer to each other as batsmen too.

Great players. The best players from that era. But they were completely different in their playing styles. Sachin starts aggressively and keeps going in similar fashion but didnt make big hundreds until late in his career. Lara starts shakily and takes time. Once he gets 50, he accelerates exponentially and only a miracle can get his wicket. He has the habit of scoring massive hundreds
