Modified Jul 24, 2016 00:58 IST

#5 Brian Lara (WI), 202 (274 balls) v South Africa, Johannesburg, 2003

In a losing cause, against a good South African bowling line-up, Lara scored a breath-taking 202 in an innings studded with 32 fours and 2 sixes. Lara scored 202 of West Indies’ 410 but the deficit was too big and thanks to a daring declaration, West Indies fumbled in the final innings, chasing 378 and losing by 189 runs. To Lara’s credit, the second and third highest scores behind his 202 were 60 and 34.

And I prayed when Sachin bowled the final over against SA. And I smiled when Goran finally won the Wimbledon. And I wept when Zidane had to walk out. And I jumped when Bryant dunked. And I..and I..and I...sports..and I live to feel what they go through on the field.
