Brian OmniScriptum Brian Lara Paperback

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Hon Brian Charles Lara, TC, OCC, AM is a former West Indian cricketer, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest batsmen of all time. He topped the Test batting rankings on several occasions and holds several cricketing records. He holds 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 (June 6, 1994), by Dave Roberts, was broadcast live around the world 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. It resulted in a huge surge of fans trying to enter the ground late in the day as Lara neared the all-time batting record. He also holds the record for the highest individual score in a test innings after scoring 400 not out against England at Antigua in 2004
