Chap beat Rev to these Stats  ::LOL::

- Chanderpaul had scored 558 runs at 111.60 in 2007 and 909 at 101.00 in 2008:
Other than Don Bradman he is the only other batsman to have scored over 500 runs at a 100-plus average in consecutive years
(Geoff Boycott and Wally Hammond are the only other one to have done it twice, but not in consecutive years).


- Chanderpaul has scored 2,440 runs at 65.94 batting at number six :
he easily averages the most for anyone with over 2,000 runs at that position – way clear of Garry Sobers’ 53.34.


- Chanderpaul had scored the fourth-fastest Test hundred of all time — in only 69 balls —
against Australia at Bourda in 2002-03.


- Chanderpaul has now played in most Tests while being on the losing side:
— 68 — which probably proves how valiant his efforts have been.

-  Chanderpaul holds the record of facing most balls without being dismissed.

He faced 1,051 balls against India in 2002 over four innings (though he scored only 362 runs).

In the above sequence Chanderpaul had also batted for 1,513 minutes (which is in excess of 25 hours).

This is also a world record, well clear of Kallis’s 1,246.

No question on that ,Rev !

But a simple acknowledgement to Rev on bally board would be in order 

Abishek Mukherjee wann 2 lash  !!

Thief !  >

No acknowledgement necessary---BallOil did a fabulous job putting together shivisgreat.com---Rev just made a minor contribution.

By the way---it has been a while since the Rev posted over at Bally' site---I must show up soon.

Hopefully Shiv will do well in India----so we'll have to update the stats page over at Shivisgreat.com
;D
