Brian Lara: 
The Prince of cricket, Brian Charles Lara is one of the best left-handed batsmen in the world cricket. His style of play has won hearts around the world. Lara is arguably the best ever modern day Test batsman as his style and scoring run quickly in a Test match made him the best ever Test batsman in the world in modern day cricket.
Yes, cricketer likes Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting scored many runs and are known for their batting style, but Lara was a different class. The cricket fans after Lara’s retirement has been missing him. Yes, batsman like him may help fans to enjoy the game, but there is hardly any player who can imitate Lara. His nephew Darren Bravo has the influence of his playing style, but Bravo yet to excel in Test cricket, possibly the culture of cricket in West Indies nowadays is affecting Bravo’s career.
