Lord Krishna surely did his magic to ensure that two great sons of Indian ancestry would celebrate their 150th and 200th tests in the same match. Shiv Chanderpaul is the first West Indies batsman in history to play 150 tests and Sachin Tendulkar is the first batsman in history to play in 200 tests.


Many will say that in life it's the quality not the longevity that matters. That is true. But in the game of cricket, we have seen not just longevity from Sachin(25 years) and Shiv(20 years) but also remarkable quality in their batting. That's a rare combination, indeed---longevity and quality.

The way the Rev sees it---it doesn't matter how many runs Shiv and Sachin get in their final test playing against each other---they could both fail to score---but in the end----they'd both be regarded as champion batsmen----and more importantly----humble and decent human beings.



GIVE PRAISE TO SHIV AND SACHIN.

That's right Mr. Googley!

By the way, the Rev will use this thread to give praise to the 2 champions, Shiv and Sachin, during the Mumbai test.

SHIV EXPLAINS HIS "POKE & BLOCK" APPROACH TO BATTING:

The man found his niche---The numbers don't lie----the poke and block approach worked like magic for the Tiger---149 tests---10897 runs---51.89 average---28 100s----61 50s

Those a great numbers put up by a simple "poke and blocker" ;D

No word from the WICB on this great achievement from the Great Man.  Or has there been something ?  I have not seen it.

First West Indian to reach 150 tests....and WICB quiet as a church mouse!

Actually Coach Gibson praised Shiv to the hilt recently and referred to him as a West Indian legend---he talked about how deeply respected Shiv was in the WI dressing room.

Anyway Shiv is a modest man---and he won't want to detract from the celebrations in India for the Indian god Sachin.

like Rev said, the Great Man is too humble to be bothered by the lack of attention from the board.  He is used to that.

He will keep on prowling as his fans demanded:

The Tiger has been the bridesmaid his entire career---he stood loyally behind the great Brian Lara for 12 years and right now he is standing behind the Indian god Sachin---it's a role, being bridesmaid, that the Tiger is very comfortable and contented with.

Annabella?Motie the batsman!? Its becoming a habit. He came in at117/8 and left at 166/9

Motie smashed 33(14)

He is world Number 2 bowler but probably wants a promotion to Motie the all rounder.

Aldo? BREAKING ?

Former Australia opener Joe Burns will now play for Italy, aiming to help them qualify for the T20 World Cup 2026 in honor of his late brother and grandparents. ????

Burns' brother, Dominic, passed away in February this year. With the 34-year-old not receiving a contract from Queensland for 2024-25, he decided to make the switch.

He will wear the number 85 jersey to honor his brother. ❤️
