LAra's 501 I saw live. Simply amazing. Missed his 375, saw the 400 live. The 400 was magic.
Lucky you.
are you from trinidad?
Manish pandey is a better batsman than Brian Lara because Manish Pandey scored an unbeaten century against Australia in Australia in Sydney SCG while chasing the target of 330 in his fourth ODI of his career in his third ODI inning.
He is the most stylish batsman of all time and always crowd loves to watch when he is on his full swing. After his retirement the cricket particularly batting became very silent particularly for me
I want to see all laras test matchs please
brian lara best batsman i have ever seen he was better than Sachin
Brian Lara arrogant? Surely you're joking. The fairest player of his generation by a mile. Always walked, never questioned the umpires decision, and a shining example of how a modern cricketer should conduct himself on-field. Absolute legend.
Proud to say i was in the SCG stands to see this brilliant innings.
over 20 blatant wrong decisions to force him back to the pavilion
Hooper had ran him out-ratan singh
arrogant isn’t a bad thing i think it’s a quality only greats have
@@petersergeant2840 no bastards have the quality never saw sachin being arrogant,virat too he is aggressive but never talks about his greatness.
Manish pandey is a better batsman than Brian Lara because Manish Pandey scored an unbeaten century against Australia in Australia in Sydney SCG while chasing the target of 330 in his fourth ODI of his career in his third ODI inning.
Brian Lara is easily the best batsman to watch and when he was in the right frame of mind I think he's probably the greatest batsman of all time
No Iva Richards Is Greatest Ever,Period.
@@kunalsingh3121 iam west Indian lara was better than Richards he played under pressure most times
@@garywarner6526 Ur Opinion didnt matter Jack,Viv richards revolutinsed The Game of Cricket,He is way ahead Of his Times and Cant be Compared to Anyone,Even his walk to the Park was More chilling That any cricket record.
And Thats rubbish that Viv doesnt play under pressure against Genuine Fast bowling there had been no better Player Tha Viv till date,He has best reflexes agaisnt pace bowling.
@@kunalsingh3121 your opinion don't matter neither we in the westindies especially the younger generation say lara and and his records stands out more than Richards 277 375 400 500 Richards played on a great west indies team who would of beat any team with out him, revolunize my Ass most westindian bats men is naturally aggressive bats men before and after Richards Sobers Everton weeks clyde Walcott you ever hear about collis king many occasions he batted with Richards he used to dominate the partnership west indies players have the most attacking players before Richards and after Richards so wat revoluzine nonsense you people talking
@@garywarner6526 Your Ass is Burning Black men 🤣🤣🤣,Lol.Their Is One Thing Call agressive batting And Revolutionise The Game Is Another,Even bradman scored 300 in single Day,By The way Nobody can be from West indian It's not A country,u Might be From Barbados,trinidad etc,West indies Is not a country and By The way,Next thing now u are from Younger Generation,U was the same Man who watch Garry sobbers bat didnt U???What a big Fat lier You are & People In carabien Who saw Viv bat Live Cant thing someone better than Him Had ask many Individuals,Michael Holding,Andy roberts,Garry sobbers and Brian Lara Himself Rates Viv as Best batsman ever.
Next Revolutnised The Game Is diff thing Hope u would Have ur Brain cells working,He is Godfather Of One day game And Attacking batsmanship,He was the One Who invent Coming down To track and Smacking bowlers all Over The Places,Was The First To Pull Fastest Bowlers On his Front Foot,I never remember Him being Hitted By Any bowler In head Till day,Yes once Rodd hogg did That Also he hit him on His mouth, And Next Ball The ball retired hurt.He was The First who can Hit a fast bowler Over extra cover With those bats by coming Down the track for Consistent Periods,Still Remember what he did To Thommo,Never ever seen anyone Doing That to bowler Of That Pace.
BTW I respect Lara too and rate Him Over Sachin but Over Viv Bloody No,Viv Too played under pressure And under pressure played better than any batsman i have seen in my Life being part of Great team doesnt take Away your Greatness,Plain Bullshit.....
He Is Mohmmad Ali Of Cricket not taking anything away From Brian Lara Viv is Ultimate......
Only batsman to score 100>>200>>300>>400>>500 in crickets history say wat u want numbers don't lie...that is all
dead pitches!
Dave Singh australia has dead pitches?
Dave Singh plus i think to score 100 hundred runs on a dead pitch is not as easy as u think against quality bowling
Well put..
Sachin have sehwag, dravid,laxman and to some extent Ganguly, and later dhoni.but Lara had nobody to fight.he fought his battle alone.that is why he is greater batsman than any body-ratan singh
That’s not fair to Chanderpaul. Lara had Chanderpaul, true Sachin had more help like you said but Chanderpaul shouldn’t be left out of the equation. The last 2 great West Indies batsmen.
He had Richardson sarwan hooper gayle everyone plus he had ambrose Walsh and in every time bishop west indies was always better than India till 1998.
Manish pandey is a better batsman than Brian Lara because Manish Pandey scored an unbeaten century against Australia in Australia in Sydney SCG while chasing the target of 330 in his fourth ODI of his career in his third ODI inning.
@@flash-uj6lyBrian and sachin are camparable atleast why u bringing manish pandey in the mix not even ponting was camparable to sachin and lara.
Sachin had no one until Sourav and Rahul came in. Maybe Azhar. And you are not counting the pressure and expectations on Sachin put by 1 billion Indians
Lara = Genius
The way he dance around the pitch reminds Clay (Muhammad Ali). Not remember any other batsman with such range of using pitch.
Brian lara is the greatest batsmen of all time
lara the best
Agree
sachin got text book of shots to display with impeccable elegance..lara got his unique style of playing with great attitude.. "Unstoppable attitude".Both players dominate any kind of attack or any top notch bowler..
Lara and Sachin both were great batsman and in person too. Only difference was, Lara had the carrabian flair and Sachin had Indian. One never played in a dogmatic way while the other was more sublime in test match. One day match and T20 does not test a batsman.
I think Lara's century against australia that led to 1 wicket win (don't remember the details of the match) was better. Heck, Lara has so many awesome test centuries that its hard to pick one
kshitiz06 .. that innings is rated as send best innings of all time from beggining to up to now...
153 not out
He actually says his 213 was his best century. Not aesthetically, but for the sort of pressure he was under. I remember everything: the 51 all out, being given a team with three players who only would play 5 test matches between them(two as openers and one as a number 3), coming at 10-2 on the Friday evening of the test.......and then the resurrection on that Saturday. It is the second most compelling day of cricket I have ever seen. The only other day that beats it was a week later in the craziness that was that final day in Barbados. And it gets more significant as the WI sink lower. That final day in Barbados was the last gasp of West Indian greatness in test cricket. The last of the golden generation(Lara, Walsh, Ambrose, Adams) fighting against impossible odds and coming out on top
Brain Lara was just amazing he has ability to destroy any bowling attack most stylish and flamboyant batsman world have ever seen
I'm not a fan of comparing great players. I believe every great player brings a certain unique flair to the game. I enjoyed watching both Sachin and Lara.
Lara is more entertained us than ali
Lara was always ahead of Sachin, no discredit to Sachin tho
I was at the SCG for this. It is still the best 100 hundred i have ever seen, and it is now 2019.
It was hard for me to accept when i was kid and loved sachin bat but today i can say comfortably that Lara was better.
Ghanta lara is nothing in front of greatest ever batsman sachin tendulkar
Go and sleep bro you are still a kid 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That just means you keep changing your opinion and never studied the game deeply .
always wen u talk about lara there is always goin to be an indian to try an squeeze sachin into d talk,dey cant stand to c ah batsman better dan sachin,it eats dem up inside
It do
Well, Chappell himself mentioned Sachin in the video. And when anyone talks about Sachin, many say that Lara was better. It goes both ways and both their names will naturally be tied together.
Lara had big attractive scores with loads of inconsistency.
Ammmmm. ..... a record like his does not reflect inconsistency.
Mate u talk about indians, Lara is a legend himself we agree, but when it comes to spin balling,the way foreign countries bowl spin i bet our school kids play them better than anyone in international cricket other than subcontinent players,so dnt compare batting against spin bowlers atleast.
greatest batsmen ,,,,
test -brian lara ,,,,
ODI - sachin tendulkar
Ian chappell thought Miandad was better than Viv! Just to put things in perspective.
sportsfan mike
And Mark Waugh better than Steve waugh
Nonsense he never said Minadad was better than Viv i searched up and down and further i grew up in that era almost all aussie cricketers of that time or all players rate Viv as ultimate.
And also Rohit better than kohli ,said Ian chappell.
@@kunalsingh3121 Only player compare to Viv was Barry Richards. Check their Packer world series records.
What a player
I agree with you.Those were gr8 knocks!
I agree with his comparison of Lara and Sachin.
There is no comparison with sachin....Lara far far far better than our little master tendulkar.... greatest ever after viv Richrds
Hope u saw the latest of Ian Chappel's addition to the Greatest Centuries.. Perth's 114.
I am sorry, I have to admit this video is about brilliance of Lara.. So, i shouldn't have mentioned sachin's name here. But for u too suggest none of his innings can feature in this series is a bit cynical. Anyways, lets wait and see what Ian Chappel pics. Afterall, its his 11 choices, Not urs or mine. :-)
Who isn't?? BC Lara s batting style was amazing. the typical crouch, huge backlift, nimble footwork, mighty wrists and the exagerrated follow through.. was a treat to watch..
He was the black mamba; very dangerous.
hardikvyas21 . Now you talking! Now that is art!
When I'm bored I watch Lara centuries on UA-cam, especially the ones against Australia
His 153* is the greatest 4th innings in my opinion against a star studded attack. Such a legend!
Lara is Undoubtedly the Greatest Test batsmen of Lara-Sachin Era and Sachin is Undoubtedly the Greatest ODI batsmen of Sachin-Lara Era, probably Sachin might be in top 5 in Tests ( Kallis, Ab Devilliers, Ponting, S.Waugh, Cook , Younis Khan, Dravid, Jayasuriya, Sangakkara, Inzamam all are way productive in tests ) of his era but definitely not No.1 in Tests because of his missing clutch innings and pressure and match winning innings in tests.
Absolutely correct sir. LARA is GENIUS.
Ian has Picked this time one of Sachin's Innings.I agree with you!
I have always preferred Lara and rate him slightly higher than Sachin in overall greatness for several reasons - not least because I reckon Lara had played more match-winning knocks than Sachin has in all forms of cricket. Especially fourth inning knocks on dire pitches against quality attacks in trying situations.
LOL! Lara has the most centuries in losing cause in test matches..only 7 in winning cause
Hooper the ultimate underachiever.
So was Richie. Would have loved to see him play long innings more than he did.
Indians could not face Carl Hooper l remember
Test cricket is real cricket. If we keep Sir Don out of the context, then Sir Garfield sobers , Sunil Gavskar and LARA are the best batsmen in the Test. The innings these guys played against quality bowling attack and under pressure which Sachin never played. Sachin never played under pressure. Sachin never win matches in Test. His second inning run chase Avg is very very poor which shows he is not mentally tough and Gutsy player like Gavaskar, LARA, Steve Waugh and other Gr8s.
No one (great cricketers) have said sachin is all time Gr8 except Few Indian cricketer of Sachin's friends and Team mates. They only praise but it doesn't mean that sachin is all time gr8. All Gr8s have put Lara above sachin becz the innings Lara played in Test cricket which sachin never played . Sachin can only dream about it. We INDIAN People are just spectator and do not have cricketing knowledge. We just see country cricket and dont follow world cricket. We do not know what happened in the past who played... how they played. Against which bowling attack. We hv zero knowledge of cricket.
have anyone seen Sir Garfield sobers batting ( I mean on You tube) ? How he is batting? How he scored runs? His shots? He is natural like Lara. Do you people know he has scored 365 runs ? Hit 6 sixes in an over.
have anyone seen Gavaskar 221 innings at oval 1979 chasing 437 in fourth innings? The match end up with draw with 2 wickets remaining. Sunil Gavaskar was 8th wicket and only few overs remaining to close the fifth day, Do you know he made 14 centaury against west indies killer fast bowling attack MARSHAL HOLDING ROBERS GARNER? Except Sunil Gavaskar No one stood in front of them in that era . Hope we spectator know these west indies bowlers..
have anyone seen Lara's match winnings 153 against Australia (Mcgrath, Gillespi, Shane Warn) in 4th innings? from 91 for 5 wickets, he did 200 runs partnership wit last 5 players and win the match with one wicket remaining ( Hats off to Walsh for playing 4 balls of Gillespi and gave Lara a chance). One can only dream such a innings.
There are many such innings these guys hv played in TEST. All I cannot put here. Go and search on you tube.
Go and see them first then I am sure u people will think differently with cricketing mind and not by heart.
Show me sachin's a single innings (like these guys played )where he played and win test match in 2nd innings run chase except one against Pakistan 139 which he got out playing a stupid shot when only 15 runs required and 4 wickets in hand. Now Don't say his back was paining. No excuse please.
Scoring 100 or 1000 century is not imp but how you scored, in which situation u scored that is imp.
Wisden cricket hv not considered his single century out of 100 in their top list. Sachin completely failed.
Thanks god Lara played in the same era in which sachin played so we came to know the huge gap between the gr8 lara and sachin.
Sachin is light year behind lara.
LARA u r GENIUS.
Many Many love to the Gr8 LARA from India.
Only bowler can judge who is the gr8 batsmann.
All the gr8s in LARA and sachin's era put LARA above sachin.

Lara is the greatest of his era an because he carried a very poor wi side on his shoulders while sachin had a good batting side especially in India so to me lara is the best
Ian Chappell is the most knowledged & honest cricketing brain you would ever come across and haters listen ! Lara was ahead than Tendulkar.
With avg of 3G in India , never Sachin avg way better against all countries , lara can’t oaky real spin against India , it’s facts not opinion subjective
Manish Pandey is a better batsman than Brian Lara because Manish Pandey scored an unbeaten century against Australia in Australia in Sydney SCG while chasing the target of 330 in his fourth ODI of his career in his third innings.
Brian lara is way better than sachin
Avg 30 india , completely failed in India , Sachin never avg 30 in any nation
People 4get kallis not textbook...but not only the runs, all those wickets too...waugh also....
Hi masterbats master mister chappell I watch u I Jamaica Kingston 200 plus fast pitch we have badis pace in world u play so much shot batting to west indies pace in your time kill dead so good God bless u love long I mis shanie
Probably Ian didn’t see Sachin’s innings against Pakistan in Chennai I suppose!
Ei sob manusher sathe keno biyer Somondho arena k jane!
Lara failed in India with avg below 30 , good player of spin lol against lesser known spinning team
Smith >kohli in tests
But kohli is the better all format player.
Lara >sachin in tests.
But sachin is the better all format batsman
Lara could of hav much more 1 day centries remember hit three consecutive 1 day centuries I bets was takeing place on if he would make another century or not in that series
Sachin is a better multi format player like viv ,bcoz of his ball striking ability and superfast footwork
Greatest ever
You are right.He is slightly better than Sachin
lara z grtest batsmn of all timez....much better than sachin
Wahdat Zeeshan glenn McGrath and curtly ambrose were far better than wasim akram
Ruchir Mundhra
search what mcgreath has to say about wasim akram ....
he believes wasim to be a far better batsman than himself.........and even lara rates wasim far better bowler than any other bowler.....
in no mood to offend u btw
lol sachin is the only player to average more than 40 in all the countries that play test cricket not even viv has achieved it
arham omer search what Lara have to say about Sachin ..just to prove Sachin was not great don't take side of lara.lara is a world class batsman and Sachin too..no need of degrading any player just because of his country of birth
@Wahdat Zeeshan True. Viv played in company of great batsmen same is true for Chappel ,Tendulker and Gavaskar. Lara played with Avg batsmen. Wasim played in company of great bowlers,same is true for Lilly, Ambrose and Mcgrath. Hadlee played with Avg bowlers. Lara and Hadlee outclass everyone else
I was listening to the Ashes on the radio the other week, and Glenn Mcgrath was commentating. The lead commentator asked him "Sachin or Lara"?
Glenn's answer was "Lara, just".
Lara better than Sachin!
I remember this innings quite vividly - as a young kid obsessed with cricket, watching Lara on TV when he played in Sydney really inspired me. One of the few contemporary batsman that I think would have thrived in any era of cricket. A real thrill to watch.
nineteenineteen who r the others u think would thrive?
Yes you said the truth sir ,Lara is well ahead of Sachin Tendulkar ,the reason they kept saying that Tendulkar is best than Brian Lara it is because heis rich in money and from the richest cricket playing nation , praising Tendulkar you would be welcome and rewards but praising Brian Lara you would get nothing ,
He's the best I've seen in 50 years of following cricket.
On the wrong end of bad decisions by umpires.
I am pretty excited about which of Sachin's inning would Ian Chappel pick? I have a feeling, he might go for the 155 v aus @ chennai.
Only batsman to regain the world record of most runs in an inning and in just a matter of six months too.
I can't imagine that it is going to happen again ever.
👌👌👌👌👌👌
How he kept this innings above laxman's 281🤔🤔🤔
Lara all time greatest only Brian Charles Lara name of game Brian lara
Super star of all time
Best batsman I’ve ever seen : Brian Lara.
Legendary player brain lara
So two legends were born in that series first warne then lara.
I am Indian we know he is a best batsman after badman
Well said Mr Ian Chappell.
His 153 is no lesser of a inning
Ian the best story teller
The GAP MASTER
Lara is truely the greatest batsman in the tedt cricket after sir donald bradman but only problem he got is his arrogance.
Ashish Regmi . Have you ever seen a lion without arrogance? When dominate you just dominate!
great does not mean arrogant
Sobers / ViV / Lara - these guys batted unlike any other with so much spark. Nobody will ever bat like them again.
Greenidge and Lloyd could bat a bit too.
@@shaynewest8757 Indeed !!! Greenide is greatests opener I saw...
Greatest batting performance ever, he took Warne and McGrath to pieces.
Mcgrath had not started playing for Australia until November that year (1993). This test was early in the year.
@@joshuahenry9135 I meant McDermott
Am die hard cricket fan.. Brian is easily the best player of our generation.. He is a class personified.. Very elegant, Great technique, Deliver when it really mattered.. He also has very good numbers to boast of.. All in all He is the BEST batsman of our GENERATION
I do love Lara as much i love Sachin .. Two of Greatest Batsmen of all time.

So is Ian Chappell taking credit for telling Lara to hit the ball into the gaps instead of the fielders? I mean is he saying he didn't know that before and therefore was hitting to the fielders earlier and therefore his advise turned him into the genius he was?
I mean it is like some retired old senior tennis player saying "hey when Federer was young he came to me for advise, I told him to hit where the opponent can't return, and from the next game he became a success" or some retired senior footballer saying "hey when Ronaldo was young he came to me for advise, I told him to aim for the nets where the goalie can't reach, and from you know what from the next game he was making a lot of goals".
Typical negative Indian, can never appreciate any positive advise
Dont forget about kallis and rahul dravid. They both over shadowed by sachin and lara. Macgrath akhtar say dravid is the toughiest batsman on earth to bowl and get out. Kallis performance and constitency is equal to or much better than tendulkar and lara.
I cannot take Akhtar seriously . He keeps changing his words.
Go watch Seawag! Mirror image!
If anyone says that Sachin is a better batsman than Lara in test that bloke doesn't know a thing about cricket trust me
1. Don 2. Viv 3. Tendulkar 4. Sobers 5. Hobbs ....Top 5 in my opinion...in that order! After that, it gets murky.
Lara is a great stylist just like Kanhai, Azha, Gower....great to watch...not among best ever. Its not all about highest individual scores...Seawag has two triple too! Who cares....these guys could do it 'cause they score fast which is more risky....greats are the ones who Can play aggressively, but, respect the game, and not always do it....its about the team...and the situation!
You are wrong Lara can well be placed higher than Tendulkar and best after Viv though both were brilliant players..Viv too scored fastly so did Gordon that hardly takes away fr greatness of player.

such an overrated innings! outfield was soggy due to rain which made the bowling redundant as bowlers were hardly getting any movement of pitch or in air. Sydney pitch was flat too.
nishit gupta if so den u shud do it to against d same bowling atack
It's about the shot making and the pace he scored the runs at. That pitch was so slow and low you should not be able to play shots like that.
To time the ball to get the boundaries everything has to be played so late but you run real risk of mistiming, chopping on. Lara never looked at risk.
He scored his runs at a strike rate of over 70 when Waugh and Richardson scored their centuries at under 50 - they couldn't play the shots on that pitch that Lara could.
Slow low pitches does make it hard to get you out, but it makes it hard to score runs as well.
Stfu. Consider the match and series situation before you go running your mouth!!!
Chappell mentions Lara's 80-odd at the MCG during the WC. That was against Pakistan. During that match, on commentary, Chappell, praised Lara but categorically said that 'Tendulkar was better'. But I think this 277, really changed his opinion....and it remained so ever since.
