Wellington - West Indies legend Brian Lara was so impressed with a letter he received from an eight-year-old New Zealand lad that he popped into his school unannounced for an impromptu game of cricket.
The record-breaking left-hander was in New Zealand as a celebrity guest at the New Zealand Open golf tournament when he received a batch of welcome letters written by pupils at the Arrowtown school in Central Otago.
Lara said on Saturday he found the letter from young Hugh Hodgson, listing things he could do in the historic gold-mining town, was so touching he decided to meet the youngster and his schoolmates.
