SHIV'S STRIKE RATE Compared To Other Successful Batsmen

As Shiv(11,583 ) approaches 12,000 runs in test cricket, which would make him the highest runs scorer in West Indies history, many West Indians who can't bear the thought of an East Indian becoming the highest scoring West Indian in tests are out with their daggers. They are manufacturing excuses to denigrate the Tiger. Currently they are attacking Shiv's "slow" strike rate.


LET US TAKE A LOOK AT THE STRIKE RATES OF THESE OUTSTANDING AND SUCCESSFUL BATSMEN

43.36 SR---Chanderpaul(52.65 avg)
42.51 SR---Dravid(52.31 avg)
42.18 SR---Barrington(58.61 avg)
41.09 SR---Border(50.50 avg)
40.45 SR---Worrell(49.48 avg)
38.07 SR---Hammond(58.45 avg)
37.37 SR---Hutton(56.67 avg


OBSERVATION:

* Shiv has a  similar STRIKE RATE to all of the successful batsmen above.

* By the way, did any of the West Indian Shiv HATERS ever complain about Worrell's Strike Rate(40.45) ? Did they call him selfish for batting too slow ?

* No! They called him the father of their cricket.

* Like I said, the criticism of Shiv's batting and his strike rate has to do with the fact that he will soon become the highest runs scoring West Indian in history, and some West Indians cannot accept an East Indian being the highest scoring West Indian.

EXCELLENT POST BY NARPER OVER AT CC

Even the Duglahs and Mulatto (half breeds) :

are struggling with that Aggregate !  ;D


mu·lat·to  noun
a person of mixed ancestry, especially a person with one black parent.

Chin , our resident incessant bawling machine , for example :

is a Trini Cheegro :

a mixture of Chinee and Negro :

chooses the Trini : Lara TEST aggregate to denigrate Shiv Chanderpaul.

This is Chapter 1: empirical evidence to follow  ::LOL::

Empirical evidence (also empirical data, sense experience, empirical knowledge, or the a posteriori) is a source of knowledge acquired by means of observation or experimentation. The term comes from the Greek word for experience, Εμπειρία (empeiría)

they are looking for any excuse to kick him out of the side before he can break the record! 

It's a fait accompli, a done deal. Shiv will get to 12,000. Butts and Gibson were shown the door. Shiv is still there. And with PPP supporter Clive Lloyd as chief selector, Shiv can play for a long as he wants.
