Happy birthday to the greatest, it was an honor to watch you bat sir, be safe.

So yuh don't respect the 277 he laid on Australia in Sydney back in 1993? Its that innings from a very young Lara that made the world take notice a superstar has arrived.
best cricketer ever to put a pair of bating gloves on and push a bat under him armpit then stroll out the middle to commence battle...that midget was a giant.

I wish I can turn back time and go to QPO and watch him bat, nothing better seeing the Prince with that high backlift in full flow
I remember David Lloyd used to do some stats analysis and say, well folks e is due for a big one today so settle down n njoy mi lads n lasses.

I remember once he was batting with Jimmy Adams and a narrow but inviting gap was through the covers against England set up sweetly for the cover drive, the bowler was pitching them all up hoping for a nick off to the packed slips cordon, Jimmy is mi man and he played at least 3 big cover drive shots and kept hitting it straight to a fielder. He gets a single flicks one down the leg side and the last ball of the over was the first ball to Lara and he drove it right through that tight gap like a needle..first ball no sighters ...there I knew..a genius was on my tv screen.
Happy Birthday Lara....I still love that 277 more than any!
In reply to Raggs
Pinpoint accuracy and precision was his hallmark.

Best placer of the ball until Virat came along..

who could play those 'no one move, no one gets hurts' through the gaps shots on the cricket ground outfield better than Lara? None!

The most aestheically pleasing innings i haveever watched. Not one vall was hit in the air. It was just bisecting of gaps and manipulation of fielders. His innings in SL are also up there
