Sir Vivian Richards and Carl Hooper called Brian Lara’s latest book a lie, know the whole matter

According to the report, Brian Lara had said in his book that Carl Hooper was a better player than him and Sachin Tendulkar. Sir Vivian Richards and Carl Hooper (Pic Source-X) Former batsman Brian Lara recently wrote something in his book Lara-The England Chronicles about his former teammates Sir Vivian Richards and Carl Hooper which neither of them liked at all and they criticized Brian Lara fiercely for this. Carl Hooper has said that he and Sir Vivian Richards were very offended that Brian Lara’s recently released book has written a lot of wrong things about them. Hooper said, ‘Sir Vivian Richards and I are very disappointed after reading Brian Lara’s recently released book. In this, not only have I and Sir Vivian Richards been portrayed in a wrong way, but many false allegations have also been made against us. The way he has portrayed us in this book is not correct at all.’ According to the report, Brian Lara had said in his book that Carl Hooper was a better player than him and Sachin Tendulkar. Not only this, he had also written a lot about Sir Vivian Richards in this book. Brian Lara made a very surprising statement in his book about Carl Hooper and Sir Vivian Richards Both the former players gave a statement together that, ‘Sir Vivian Richards used to make them cry three times every week in the dressing room but Hooper only once. His voice was such that if you are not strong then you will have a lot of trouble with it. But I don’t think so. We did not have any trouble with his words at all. Hooper’s first captain was Sir Vivian Richards and he never had any problem with him. He always supported Hooper and praised him but everything is wrong in Brian Lara’s book due to which the families of both the former players have also been shocked. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

The former player is not at all happy with the performance of his team in the currently being played England vs West Indies match.

The team is still 171 runs behind England. Speaking on the BBC World Service Stumped Podcast, Brian Lara has blamed the West Indies Cricket Board. Brian Lara said, ‘If you put 100 million or 200 million dollars in the bank account of West Indies, will it change their way of playing? I don’t think so. We are not using the talent we have properly. West Indies cricket has not taken any significant steps to attract sponsors. Not only this, they have not done any work on the important things that people need. All this is very important.’ Brian Lara made a special appeal to West Indies cricket The former West Indies player further said, ‘We don’t have anyone coming from the gate side. I reached Lord’s on Wednesday at 7:30 am and people were waiting outside. I saw this when I was a kid and people used to wait for the gate to open at 5:30 am in Queen’s Park in Trinidad. Now this is not happening. Even if you reach there at 11:00 am, the stadium will still be empty.’ Talking about the first test, this is the last match of James Anderson’s cricketing career. England has so far put pressure on West Indies in this match and the hosts would definitely want to win it. England now has to take just four more wickets to win the first test.
