Brian Charles Lara was one of the best and the finest cricketers to play and lead the West Indies team. Under his captaincy, WI's title drought of 25 years came to an end when they won their first and only ICC Champions Trophy in 2004. Lara finished his cricketing career as one of the best in the business with some phenomenal records to his name. Post his retirement, he has been following the West Indies Cricket and now, he was also seen with the West Indian players in Mumbai ahead of the 3rd and final T20I.

Even the fans were happy after seeing the great man offering a piece of advice to the youngster. Here are a couple of reactions.
Winner takes it all
India and West Indies head to Mumbai with the series on the line which is currently tied at 1-1. The Men In Blue had drawn first blood in Hyderabad with a six-wicket win riding on skipper Virat Kohli's unbeaten 94 which is also his highest individual score in the shortest format. The Caribbeans settled scores in the following match at Trivandrum with an emphatic eight-wicket win. Opener Lendl Simmons who was dropped early on went on to score a match-winning unbeaten 67.
