Brian Charles Lara, TC, OCC, AM (born 2 May xxxx) is a former West Indian international cricket player.[1][2] He is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest batsmen of his era[3][4][5] and one of the finest ever to have graced the game. He topped the Test batting rankings on several occasions and holds several cricketing records, including the record for the highest individual score in first-class cricket, with 501 not out for Warwickshire against Durham at Edgbaston in xxxx, which is the only quintuple hundred in first-class cricket history.[6]Lara was the 10th of 11 children. Lara's father Bunty and one of his older sisters Agnes Cyrus enrolled him in the local Harvard Coaching Clinic at the age of six for weekly coaching sessions on Sundays. As a result, Lara had a very early education in correct batting technique. Lara's first school was St. Joseph's Roman Catholic primary. He then went to San Juan secondary, which is located in Moreau Road, Lower Santa Cruz. A year later, at fourteen years old, he moved on to Fatima College where he started his development as a promising young player under cricket coach Mr. Harry Ramdass. Aged 14, he amassed 745 runs in the schoolboys' league, with an average of 126.16 per innings, which earned him selection for the Trinidad national under-16 team. When he was 15 years old, he played in his first West Indian under-19 youth tournament and that same year, Lara represented West Indies in Under-19 cricket.xxxx was a breakthrough year for Lara, when in the West Indies Youth Championships he scored 498 runs breaking the record of 480 by Carl Hooper set the previous year.[23] He captained the tournament-winning Trinidad and Tobago, who profited from a match-winning 116 from Lara.In January xxxx, Lara made his first-class debut for Trinidad and Tobago in the Red Stripe Cup against Leeward Islands. In his second first-class match he made 92 against a Barbados attack containing Joel Garner and Malcolm Marshall, two greats of West Indies teams. Later in the same year, he captained the West Indies team in Australia for the Bicentennial Youth World Cup where the West Indies reached the semi-finals. Later that year, his innings of 182 as captain of the West Indies under 23 XI against the touring Indian team further elevated his reputation.His first selection for the full West Indies team followed in due course, but unfortunately coincided with the death of his father and Lara withdrew from the team. In xxxx, he captained a West Indies B Team in Zimbabwe and scored 145.In xxxx, at the age of 20, Lara became Trinidad and Tobago's youngest-ever captain, leading them that season to victory in the one-day Geddes Grant Shield. It was also in xxxx that he made his belated Test debut for West Indies against Pakistan, scoring 44 and 5. He had made his ODI debut a month earlier against Pakistan, scoring 11.Lara moved in with his future fellow Trinidadian cricketer Michael Carew in Woodbrook, Port of Spain (a 20 minute drive from Santa Cruz). Michael's father Joey Carew worked with him on his cricketing and personal career development. Michael got Lara his first job at Angostura Ltd. in the marketing department. Lara played in Trinidad and Tobago junior soccer and table tennis sides but Lara believed that cricket was his path to success, saying that he wanted to emulate his idols Gordon Greenidge, Viv Richards and Roy Fredericks.Lara also holds the record for the highest individual score in a test innings after scoring 400 not out against England at Antigua in xxxx.[7] He is the only batsman to have ever scored a hundred, a double century, a triple century, a quadruple century and a quintuple century in first class games over the course of a senior career.[8][9] Lara also holds the test record of scoring the highest number of runs in a single over in a Test match, when he scored 28 runs off an over by Robin Peterson of South Africa in xxxx.[10]Lara's match-winning performance of 153 not out against Australia in Bridgetown, Barbados in xxxx has been rated by Wisden as the second best batting performance in the history of Test cricket, next only to the 270 runs scored by Sir Donald Bradman in The Ashes Test match of xxxx.[11] Muttiah Muralitharan, rated as the greatest Test match bowler ever by Wisden Cricketers' Almanack,[12] and the highest wicket-taker in both Test cricket[13] and in One Day Internationals (ODIs),[14] has hailed Lara as his toughest opponent among all batsmen in the world.[15] Lara was awarded the Wisden Leading Cricketer in the World awards in xxxx and xxxx[16] and is also one of only three cricketers to receive the prestigious BBC Overseas Sports Personality of the Year, the other two being Sir Garfield Sobers and Shane Warne.[17]Brian Lara was appointed honorary member of the Order of Australia on 27 November xxxx.[18] On 14 September xxxx he was inducted to the ICC's Hall of Fame at the awards ceremony held in Colombo, Sri Lanka as a xxxx-13 inductee along with Australian Glenn McGrath and former England women all-rounder Enid Bakewell.[19][20]Brian Lara is popularly nicknamed as "The Prince of Port of Spain" or simply "The Prince".[21] He has the dubious distinction of playing in second highest number of test matches (63) in which his team was on losing side, just behind Shivnarine Chanderpaul (68).[22]
