Brian Lara is coming out of retirement for a one-off Twenty20 match in August, as part of the 125th-anniversary celebrations for his old club, Warwickshire. Lara, whose explosive batting helped lift the County Championship in a memorable 1994 season, will be joined by Allan Donald and his former captain, Dermot Reeve, in a Warwickshire Greatest Ever XI against a PCA Masters XI at Edgbaston on 31 August.

�..Playing at Edgbaston again is going to be a very special day - especially with all the guys that are making themselves available,�.� said Donald. "It will be quite something and will bring back memories of some of my greatest ever years with the club. I had a wonderful time at Warwickshire and I�..m really looking forward to renewing some old rivalries and friendships. To play in front of the Edgbaston crowd once more will be a real honour.�.�
