Mumbai: West Indies batting legend Brian Lara was admitted to a hospital in Mumbai on Tuesday after complaining of chest pain, Indian media reports and sources said.

###

The 50-year-old Trinidadian was rushed to hospital after he complained of discomfort during a promotional event, the Press Trust of India (PTI) news agency said, quoting a source close to the player.

###

“He is fine and will be discharged soon,” the source told PTI.

###

Lara was in Mumbai to take part in events organised by Star Sports, the official broadcasters of the ongoing cricket World Cup.

###

“He complained of chest pain and uneasiness this morning and was sent for a routine check-up. He is fine now,” a source at the broadcaster, who asked not to be named, told AFP.

###

One of the best batsmen of all time, Lara holds two world records – the highest Test score of 400 not out, and the highest first class knock of 501 that he scored in the English county championship in 1994.

###

The former skipper retired in 2007 after a dismal West Indies campaign in the World Cup.
