Even as Brian Lara [Images] got out for a 'duck' in the second innings of the Kingston Test against Pakistan, his first innings heroics were enough to give him a world record.

The West Indies [Images] batsman has now aggregated 6,006 runs in home matches -- the highest aggregate for any batsman in Test cricket.

Lara surpassed England's [Images] Graham Gooch's tally of 5,917 runs. Interestingly, he moved ahead of Gooch in 13 Tests and 29 innings fewer than him.

During the West Indies' first innings of the Kingston [Images] Test, Lara also completed 1,000 runs in the Test matches played at the ground. His aggregate at the ground at the end of first innings reads: 1,075 runs in 17 innings, at an average of 67.18.

Lara has now aggregated 1,000 runs on three different grounds. Others are: St.John's (1,632 runs) and Bridgetown (1,339 runs).

Lara thus became only the fifth batsman after Australia's [Images] Greg Chappell [Images], Allan Border [Images], Steve Waugh and Pakistan's Javed Miandad to aggregate 1,000 runs at three different grounds.

It is worth mentioning that Lara has aggregated 986 runs at Port-of-Spain and is all set to soon become the first batsman ever to aggregate 1,000 runs at four grounds.

The 153 in the Kingston Test was the 17^th score of 150-plus or more for him. He is now just one short of equalling Don Bradman's world record tally of 18.
