The day Brian Lara broke the Test record.
#OnThisDay in 1994, resuming on 320* against England in Antigua, @BrianLara surpassed Garry Sobers’ 365 to spark a pitch invasion.
Lara was eventually out for 375 (538 balls, 45 fours), caught off Andy Caddick by Jack Russell.
No one has picked more wickets (1347) than Muttiah Muralidaran in international cricket.
The second best is 346 wickets behind 😯
Happy Birthday to an all-time great 🥳
India, England, and Australia have spent the last decade or so leveraging their economic heft to hollow out the Test cricket ecosystem, and two of these teams still get humiliated in the format. Pathetic.

Met with Australian Prime Minister @AlboMP and his delegation for bilateral discussions today (24) at 12.00 noon (New York time) at Sri Lanka’s Permanent Mission to the UN in New York.
Sri Lankan President Anura Kumara Dissanayake says his country knows well the futility of war. Speaking at the 80th UNGA, he called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
Australia and Sri Lanka share a vision for a peaceful, secure and prosperous region 🇦🇺 🇱🇰
Thank you for the productive discussion today, President Dissanayake.
With so many Australians of Sri Lankan heritage contributing to our nation, I look forward to deepening our relationship even further.
