384 runs @ 54.85 with one score of 277.

I wouldn't think so even taking into account how very special that innings was.

Lara's innings of 277 (run out) was the best Test century I've ever seen. If he didn't get run out that day we would never have got him out.

I'm also a little surprised Boonie's record is better than Hayden's. Just shows how the memory plays tricks.

I agree entirely.

An Innings that most people that saw it will never ever forget but it doesn't change the rest of his innings at the ground were far from exceptional.

2,1,35,28,5 and 36.

Not the numbers to force his way into that XI unfortunately.
