About The Author

Brian Lara

Brian Lara is one of cricket’s greatest players. Holder of the world record for the highest Test score and the only player in history to breach the 500-run mark in a first-class innings, the left-hander bestrode the game in the years either side of the millennium. Since retirement he has turned his hand to commentary and coaching – taking charge of Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL – and set up the Bunty and Pearl Foundation, a charity in memory of his parents that aims to tackle health and social care issues primarily in his native Trinidad. This is his first fully co-authored book.
