Former West Indies batter Brian Lara is in India to participate in the Road Safety T20 Series. He leads the West Indies Legends.
Lara, during an interview, opened up about his favourite cricketer while talking about the amount of cricket he follows these days.
“I follow the West Indies as you know. They did pretty well in Sri Lanka in the T20 version of the game. Around the world, there are so many amazing batsmen to look at. There is Steve Smith, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma. My favourite is K.L. Rahul. Cricket is healthy, the commercial side seems to be pretty good, which is important”.
Adding more on why he loves KL Rahul, he says that he is just class.
“He’s just class. I mean, when you are watching a player, you want to see him play, you want to see great technique, a good aggressive spirit as well. He is a great entertainer, he’s a great person to watch bat. This is as simple as that. He’s no better batsman than Virat Kohli. Virat is the best batsmen in the world, but it’s just the preference of who I like to see bat. No disrespect to anybody else,” He said.
