When Sachin Tendulkar retires after the 2 test series against the West Indies later this month---Shiv Chanderpaul will become the most experienced international cricketer in the world. Shiv started playing tests in March 1994----that's 19yrs 8months and counting.



WHAT A REMARKABLE CRICKETER!


* Shiv has played in more tests(148) than any other WI cricketer

* Shiv(51.62 avg) will be the first Guyanese to average 50+ in test cricket.

* Only 5 batsmen in history have had more scores over fifty in tests than Shiv(89 scores over 50)

* Only 7 batsmen in history have scored more runs than Shiv(10830)


GIVE PRAISE TO THE GREAT MAN!


No more loyal and dedicated cricketer has ever represented the West Indies than Shiv Chanderpaul.

Om Namah Shiva!

Rev, would Shiv be able to break his coach's record at Eden Garden?  Rohan has the hightest West Indian score there.    After it will be a flat track, designed for runs!

Shiv needs 170 runs to reach 11,000 in tests.

He should knock that off in the 2 tests against India.

The tracks for the 2 tests are being prepared to benefit the great Sachin----but the Maximum Leader also loves flat tracks----hopefully he will fill his boots----he first needs 170----then he can set his sights on RBK 256.

There is no question the great man's style is ugly and crabbie  and his scoring rate is pedestrian, but no one with a functioning brain can deny that when it comes to production and productivity Shiv Chanderpaul has delivered the goods with remarkable consistency during his long and illustrious career. And the bottom line when you are a batsman is the runs you score not how you score those runs.

Soca:

SHIV IS GUYANESE. HE IS NOT A WEST INDIAN.   :D


By the way, other than Viv Richards, how many flashy and flamboyant West Indians have scored a 69 ball test hundred ?

That 69 ball test hundred is today the 4th fastest hundred in test cricket.

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
