All the best Brian Charles Lara :bow1: Title: Brian Charles Lara Retires Post by: Give us an S on Friday, April 20, 2007, 06:28:12 I suppose he wants to bow out on his homeland.
A true legend! Title: Brian Charles Lara Retires Post by: larwood on Friday, April 20, 2007, 07:19:45 The last time he played in England i remember the comentators saying it would probably be the last time he'd play over here so i'm not suprised he's quit altogether,he is 38 as well.
Goes without saying he's an absolute legend. Title: Brian Charles Lara Retires Post by: sonic youth on Friday, April 20, 2007, 08:40:58 I was looking forward to watching him this summer.
Absolute legend, good luck to him. Title: Brian Charles Lara Retires Post by: Scot Munroe on Friday, April 20, 2007, 08:48:34 I was aswell sonic. Wonderful batsman. Always will be remembered by Warwickshire fans for the 501 against Durham. All the best for the future.

Title: Brian Charles Lara Retires Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Monday, April 23, 2007, 21:34:03 last time they were over they played a pretty much second string sussex team, as is the way with touring sides, it was a 50 over match and the windies needed 140ish off 10 overs when lara came into bat.
they reached the total with 2 overs to spare. it was the most awesome display of batting i have ever seen. |
