This is why Brian Lara picked Sachin Tendulkar's 241 against Australia as most disciplined innings of his Test career

Former West Indies cricketer Brian Lara named the best disciplined and determined innings of his Test career.

A legend of the game, Lara, picked Sachin Tendulkar's fighting innings of 241 runs against Australia as the best ever.

Brain took to Instagram and wrote: "Can you imagine playing Test cricket at the age of 16 until the next 24 years. That is just unbelievable."

"Sachin has played some amazing innings throughout his career but none with more discipline and determination like his 241* against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG)," he further added.

Back in 2004, Tendulkar smashed 241* off 436 balls against the Aussies and helped India hoist a mammoth score of 705/7 in the first innings.

Even though the match finished in a draw but Tendulkar concentration and dedication showed against the Australian pace attack is still alive in the minds of the cricketing fans.

Sachin, who made his debut in red-ball cricket as a 16-year-old, ended his 24-year-long career as Test cricket's highest-run scorer.

However, the whole reason why Lara brought this up was to remind everyone to show the same discipline as the world battles COVID-19 outbreak.

According to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), there are 2902 confirmed cases of coronavirus cases in the country and 68 fatalities have been reported.
