One of the first names that come to mind when we speak about Trinidad is its Prince - Brian Lara. The 47-year-old is undoubtedly the most popular face in that part of the world and has been revered for many years by fans in that part of the world.
During his playing days, Lara played 12 Tests at the venue, amassing 986 runs at an average of 42.86.
In ODIs, no one has scored more runs than at the venue. Lara amassed 1276 runs in 30 matches at an average of 55.47, 418 runs ahead of Desmond Haynes, who is second on the list.
However, above everything else, just the sheer popularity of the man in the country, he deserves a venue to be named after him.
