Three-nil down in a four-match sequence and with his team in confusion, Brian Charles Lara knew he had to do amazing special in the last Test of England's 2004 tour of the West Indies. Something so as to would let the world be acquainted with there was motionless some arrogance left in Caribbean cricket. He have to take rear his world evidence.

Returning to Antigua, the sight of Lara's 375 next to England a decade previous to, the West Indies captain be on a assignment: to reclaim the uppermost individual Test achieve he had lost when Australia's Matthew Hayden scored 380 next to Zimbabwe in 2003.

It took him now six months to keep his world recorded which Australia's lively opener Matthew Hayden broke. Lara's extraordinary winning400 was merely the tenth quadruple-century in all first-class crickets.

The Trinidadian left-hander face 582 delivery, hitting 43 fours and four sixes, location a new standard which still have to be broken. It has be seven years and no batsman till day has even come close to contravention the extraordinary feat.

Lara's achievement be a feat of astonishing staying power each bit as a great deal as one of ability. He subsists surely not at the climax of his cricketing career, except he has the ability to achieve big. Lara's inning be proof of the control of the brain - he be at the wicket for 13 hours and surely it's not a joke to be at crease for such a long time.

In the entire history of cricket he is the only man still to have scored a century, 200, 300, 400 and 500 runs in first-class cricket.

The record set by Lara is yet to be broken. So the big query is whether any of this contemporary age group batsman had excellence plus patince to be at the fold for long and do the not possible?

The only name that come in everyone's brain is India's icebreaker Virender Sehwag. The strutting opener absolutely has the class and caress making to reach this feat. Sehwag already has the second best twice century in Test cricket that come from just 168 balls next to Sri Lanka and he has score his Test runs at a earlier pace than anybody in the the past of cricket.
