cool...Lara bowling!....a collectors item!

And talking of lara…the brilliant Harsha Bhogle in his latest article analyzes Lara’s brilliance even at this age (Lara is 36!). But it is the end of the article that leaves a lasting impression.

To quote from the article:

Now two records approach Lara, one good the other bitter. Soon, he will be the greatest run-getter in the history of the game and, if this purple patch lasts, he will also score more hundreds than anyone else. And almost inevitably he will have played more losing matches than anyone else in the history of the game.

ha..oh! oh! Oh!
