Windies ride on Lara's sizzling ton

They say batsmen get better with age but this is outrageous. After that incandescent century in Lahore, Brian Charles Lara has lighted the Multan with another brilliant century in 77 balls. He has taken 60 runs off Kaneria, showing once again why he is considered the best batsmen of this generation.( I hate to admit , but Sachin is getting old !)


"A sensational 77-ball century from Brian Lara, when he provided a masterclass in toying with spin, stunned Pakistan on the morning session of the third day of the Multan Test leaving West Indies just 45 runs behind with six wickets standing. Pakistan's attempt to fight back, snapping up four wickets, was met with Lara's counterattacking genius - reeling off the ninth-fastest hundred in Test history - allowing West Indies to end on a healthy 312 for 4 at lunch."
