OK Folks!

* As usual you can expect the Rev to present you with obscure but interesting stats.

* The subject is test hundreds scored after age 39.


https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTDWCYJoqsH0jKDHgXYKN2RG7Q1nU60kfEeI19e0e10iIiRb1pv

* First of all congrats to Shiv Chanderpaul on scoring his first test hundred after age 39.

* The most test hundreds scored by a batsman after age 39 is 8 by Jack Hobbs; Don Bradman had 6---see link:

stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/i...results;type=batting

* West Indian Clive Lloyd scored 3 hundreds in 20 tests played after age 39.

* Only 3 batsmen in WI history have scored hundreds after age 39----Lloyd(3), Greenidge(1), and Chanderpaul(1).


GIVE PRAISE TO THE GREAT MAN ON HIS FIRST HUNDRED AFTER AGE 39----may he score quite a few more.

* Clive Lloyd was 40yr 6mo when he played his final test against Australia---he scored 33 and 72 in that test.

* Shiv is now 39yr 126days---and will definitely surpass his compatriot Lloyd in terms of age when he plays his final test.

* Interestingly, Shiv will be the first Guyanese in history to end his career with a 50+ test average.

* Shiv ought to receive Guyana's highest award---the Order of Excellence---when he retires.

*Precedent is in Shiv's favor.

* He can emulate his fellow Guyanese Lloyd and Gibbs and play into his 40s

* And like Lloyd he can be productive all the way to the end.

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

"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.
