This is not Brian Lara, but he sure does look a lot like him.
Darren Bravo, whose appearance and mannerisms at the crease rekindles memories of his fellow Trinidadian, stoked a wonderful 80 before falling just before the close on the second day of the third Test between West Indies and Sri Lanka Thursday.
In just his second Test innings, the polished left-hander played some superb shots, hitting six boundaries and four straight sixes before falling to part-time off-spinner Tillakaratne Dilshan.At the close, West Indies were 165 for five in reply to Sri Lanka’s 387 for nine declared.
