An unsung hero for West Indies
Since Brian Lara's retirement in 2006, Shivnarine Chanderpaul has been the mainstay of West Indies' batting. Although West Indies have never quite managed to be a force in the Test arena,[url=http://giuseppezanottimenssneakers.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti sneakers men- New Fall/Winter 2013 Collection[/b][/url], Chanderpaul's batting performances have enabled them to stay competitive more often than not. Even in the present series against Australia, Chanderpaul has scored over 300 runs while being dismissed just three times while the highest average among the rest of the batsmen is 34.75. While his stance and technique may not be among the most stylish,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/[/b][/url], there can be little doubt about his efficiency. Nearly 18 years after he made his debut, Chanderpaul scaled the 10,000-run mark in his 140th Test. He becomes the tenth batsman overall and only the second West Indian after Lara to reach the landmark. While Chanderpaul is the second-slowest in terms of innings (239) and matches (140) to reach the 10,000-run mark (Steve Waugh took 156 matches and 244 innings), he remains the slowest in terms of time taken from the debut date.
Between 1980 and the mid-1990s, only Sunil Gavaskar (1983) and Allan Border (1993) passed the 10,000-run mark. However since the beginning of 2000, eight batsmen have scaled the mark. Lara and Sachin Tendulkar were joint-quickest to the mark in terms of innings (195) while Lara took 11 matches fewer. All ten batsmen in the elite group average over 50 with Jacques Kallis (56.78) and Tendulkar (55.44) having the highest averages. Chanderpaul has the second-lowest strike rate (42.67) and a high value of balls-per-innings (98.60). Rahul Dravid and Kallis are the only batsmen in the group to face more than hundred balls per innings on average. While Lara has the lowest not-out percentage (2.58),[url=http://discountsoccercleatsonline.webmium.com/][b]cheap adidas soccer cleats[/b][/url], Waugh and Chanderpaul have the highest values (17.69 and 15.89 respectively).
Though Chanderpaul has proved to be an extremely consistent batsman in away Tests,[url=http://discountsoccercleatsonline.webmium.com/][b]http://discountsoccercleatsonline.webmium.com/[/b][/url], it is in home matches that he has turned out to be among the finest. His average of 59.17 at home is only behind those of Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara on the list of batsmen with 5000-plus runs in home Tests. He has scored 17 centuries in home Tests, a record among West Indian batsmen which he shares with Lara. For majority of his career, Chanderpaul batted at No.5 and No.6 scoring 7636 runs. His aggregate while batting at these vital middle-order positions is second only to Steve Waugh's tally of 9919 runs. His average of 56.98 at No.5 and 6 is the second-highest behind Michael Clarke's 57.07 among batsmen with 3000-plus runs at the two positions.
Chanderpaul made his debut against England in March 1994 and was Lara's partner in Antigua when Lara went past Garry Sobers' 365. In his first few years (1994-1999), Chanderpaul did not have a great impact but was solid enough to average over 40. However, in that period, his ratio of centuries to fifties (2:18) was not impressive. Between 2000 and 2004, however, he had established himself as one of the two most important batsmen in the West Indian team along with Lara. Chanderpaul was rarely known for a quick-scoring innings but was capable of highly aggressive batting as he demonstrated during his 69-ball century against Australia, which is still the second-fastest Test hundred by a West Indian batsman.
Towards the end of Lara's career,[url=http://woolrichoutletonlines.blogspot.com/][b]http://woolrichoutletonlines.blogspot.com/[/b][/url], Chanderpaul had taken over the responsibility of guiding an inexperienced batting line-up. Between 2005 and 2008, he scored over 3000 runs at superb average of 62.72 with nine centuries. Perhaps the transformation in Chanderpaul's performances can be best understood by comparing his batting stats in matches when Lara played and in those after Lara's retirement. In the 84 matches he played with Lara, Chanderpaul was content to play second fiddle and scored 5634 runs at 43.67. However,[url=http://duveticapiuminiitalia.webmium.com/][b]duvetica piumini italia[/b][/url], after Lara's retirement, Chanderpaul's display has been exceptional. He has scored 13 of his 25 centuries in this period while averaging an excellent 61.40.
Both Lara and Chanderpaul were unfortunate to play for majority of their careers in a declining West Indian team. After dominating world cricket for almost two decades, West Indies lost their way in the late 1990s and hardly managed to win Tests against top teams in the 2000s. Following the 2-0 loss in India last year, Chanderpaul went past Lara's record of featuring in the most Test defeats. Chanderpaul has scored the second-highest number of runs in defeats (behind Lara) and has the third-best average behind Lara and Andy Flower among batsmen with 2000-plus runs in losses. However, among the top six run-getters in Test defeats,[url=http://kevindurantshoesonlinestore.blogspot.com/][b]kevin durant shoes store[/b][/url], Chanderpaul has the highest percentage of career runs in losses (44.82). He has also been extremely prolific in draws - his average of 72.31 is the second-highest behind that of Kallis among batsmen with 3000-plus runs in drawn games.
Like Lara,[url=http://kevindurantshoesonlinestore.blogspot.com/][b]kevin durant shoes online[/b][/url], the only other West Indian with 10000-plus runs, Chanderpaul has a much better average in the team first innings (55.75) than in the second innings (41.64). In the match first and second innings, Lara has a higher average and more centuries than Chanderpaul. However, in the third innings, Chanderpaul averages slightly higher but has scored four fewer centuries. In the fourth innings, both batsmen have the same number of centuries (2), but Chanderpaul has a better average (43.38) than Lara (35.12). Chanderpaul is joint-highest with Graeme Smith on the list of batsmen with the most fifty-plus scores in the fourth innings.
Overall, Chanderpaul has a much better home record as compared to his performances away. Against Australia,[url=http://giuseppezanottioutletonline.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti outlet online[/b][/url], he has been extraordinary at home scoring over 1000 runs at an average of 80.38. However,[url=http://woolricheliteparka.blogspot.com/][b]woolrich elite parka[/b][/url], in Tests in Australia, he has failed to step it up similarly. His average of 30.20 in 11 Tests in Australia is his lowest against a top Test team (excluding Zimbabwe and Bangladesh). Since 1995, he is one among only seven batsmen to score 1500-plus runs against Australia, who were the best Test team in the period. Chanderpaul's home record against all teams except England is better than his corresponding away record. Against Pakistan, he averages nearly 66 at home and just over 30 away while the numbers against India are 70.31 and 54.55 respectively. However, against England, the numbers are reversed. Although his home average against England is respectable (40.00), it is his performance in England which sets him apart. Among West Indian batsmen with 1000-plus runs in England,[url=http://parajumperssalefreeshipping.webmium.com/][b]parajumpers sale[/b][/url], Chanderpaul's average of 64.66 is on top and marginally ahead of second-placed Viv Richards' 64.28. He is also sixth on the overall list of visiting batsmen with the best averages in England (min 1000 runs scored).
Chanderpaul has been involved in 62 century stands during the course of his career. He has shared nine century partnerships with Lara and seven each with Dwayne Bravo and Ramnaresh Sarwan. He also had a very prolific association with Carl Hooper (six century stands) - In the 2002 home series against India, the pair was involved in three massive partnerships of 293,[url=http://parajumperssalefreeshipping.webmium.com/][b]parajumpers jacket[/b][/url], 186 and 215. The number of runs scored while Chanderpaul is at the crease (23054) is 34.04% of the total team runs (in matches Chanderpaul has played in) and serves as an excellent indicator of his ability to occupy the crease for long intervals. Chanderpaul has displayed tremendous consistency against both pace and spin throughout. In Tests since the beginning of 2002, he averages 58.26 against pace bowlers (73 dismissals) and 59.01 against spinners (53 dismissals). However, since 2007, he has had an outstanding run and the corresponding averages are 71.66 and 62.73.
I HAVE ALWAYS FULLY APPRECIATED CHANDERPAULS'S WORTH IN THE TEAM AND MISS HIM BADLY WHEN HE IS NOT THERE. AT LEAST YOU KNOW THERE WILL BE SOME FORM OF RESISTANCE, SO AWESOMELY RELIABLE. WAS SO IN LOVE WITH HIS MILD SWEET MANNERISMS AND DETERMINATION WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER AND STILL AM TODAY. CHANDERS,[url=http://youthsoccercleatsstore.blogspot.com/][b]youth soccer cleats store[/b][/url], YOU DON'T BAT A DAY, OR LOOK A DAY OLDER THAN WHEN YOU STARTED REPRESENTING THE REGION WHEN YOU WERE 18. SECOND TO GAYLE YOU ARE MY NEXT MOST FAVOURITE CRICKETER. But, I'm sure that no amount of stats or language can get hold of the role played by Shiv. I'm sure the immediate feeling in the Aussie camp and Aussie fans at the fall of Shiv's wicket was, "Yes, we are winning this match". Let me see if any of the reasonable Aussie fans disagree with me on that. That feeling of win is ours at the fall of Shiv's priceless wicket sums up the irreplaceable role Shiv has had in his entire career. Take a bow my dearest Legend Shiv. I'm really blessed to be born in an era when Shiv was and still is The Rock of Windies Cricket. Timeless Master - from a Team India supporter.
I don't get one thing. Chanders and Lara have so many great rearguard knocks in losing causes. So Why does Tendulkar get flack for having 11 centuries in losing causes. It's not his fault he played some classy knocks when surrounded by incompetent bowlers and batsmen. Tendulkar gets the credit he deserves and so does Lara. Dravid and Chanders get less than they deserve because the average cricket viewer doesn't understand test cricket. Anyone who truly understands the game,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]duvetica jackets canada outlet shop duvetica down jackets online sale[/b][/url], gives all 4 batsmen their due and realizes how vulnerable their teams would be without them. But make no mistake, batsmen can't win tests, only bowlers can and all 4 greats were cursed with terrible bowling attacks that could never force the issue unless 600+ runs were on the board
This guy has never been recognised for the job he has done for the WI and cricket as a whole. He still has quite a bit more runs to give to the WI and I have already predicted that Narsingh Deonarine and him would be an asset to the WI late in the innings when they come together, look out for them in England. When ever he decides to hang his sneakers up he will be sorely missed because there's no one on that team who is capable of doing what he does game after game, he frustrates many bowlers and his patience is without equal. I term him the ROCK OF GIBRALTAR.
A number Tests should be grateful for
Go Figure: The game owes much to the number 61. Andy Zaltzman and S Rajesh list out its achievements
Snow,[url=http://woolrichoutletparka.halod.com/][b]Woolrich Outlet men sale[/b][/url], sleet. and cricket
Rewind: In 1903, the English county season got off to a frosty start, with a match between London County and Surrey played amid sleet and snow showers
An inspiring story, simply told
Suresh Menon: The tale of how Yuvraj Singh beat cancer and came back to cricket is now the subject of a book that reveals the man behind the allrounder.
