  Double century at the age of 36 in the golden era of Aussies in Australia. What a splendid innings, I must say.

  Sir Hobbs, Sachin, Sir Bradman, Gavaskar had all the shots from the textbook. Lara wrote his own textbook. Part scientist, part artist, complete GENIUS. That's Brian Charles Lara.

  More than his records, I feel Brain Lara is the most Elegant Left handed Batsmen ever.

  When the crowd of the opposition country gives you a standing ovation means that you are well respected. And Lara was respected everywhere he went.

  Lara scored 200* when the whole team&apos;s total was 340. Shows the greatness. What a flamboyant and brilliant batsman.

  At the age of 36, modern batsmen like Virat Kohli are struggling to make test runs at home and away, whereas this magician used to score double hundreds, against the great Australian bowling line up, in their own backyard, all of this while carrying his teams total score. Look at the team score when he got out, it&apos;s not even 400. What a guy!! What a player!! The more I see him, the more I feel like he was a greater batsman than Sachin Tendulkar
