Brian Lara’s wish denied, no Sachin Tendulkar stand

Trinidad and Tobago cricket board have reportedly rejected former West Indies batting legend Brian Lara’s suggestion of having a stand named after Sachin Tendulkar in the almost complete Brian Lara Cricket Academy stadium in Port of Spain. The president of Trinidad and Tobago board, Azim Bassarath, reportedly said, “India have so many stadia and I don’t know any of them have stands named after any of our West Indian greats so why must we name a stand after Tendulkar. I thought there would be stands named after Ian Bishop, or Larry Gomes or Gus Logie. Not Tendulkar.”
