[quote author=easyrider link=topic=85993.msg538079#msg538079 date=1386862825]Long way to go but cannot see the West Indies much over 300 in this innings.[/quote]
Seems as though I was over optimistic.

* A fighting 31 NOT OUT by Shiv in the 2nd innings.
* [size=18pt]Shiv joins Alan Border ---both have 44 NOT OUTS[/size]
* Only Steve Waugh(46) has more NOT OUTS.
GOOD EFFORT BY SHIV IN THE 2ND INNINGS AT BASIN RESERVE.
* Shiv maintains his 40+ average vs NZ---40.68 in 17 tests

Re: 39 YEAR OLD SHIV: A Fighting NOT OUT - easyrider - 12-13-2013
Interesting comments but quite balanced.
Shiv played a test innings and a number 10 did what a number 10 does.
I have seen cases where Chanderpaul could have batted with the tail better and cases where he did, like the Bishoo example, but I cannot fault him on this occasion as it was all but over.
Winning the toss and inserting the opposition to be beaten within 3 days requires some attention.

he was not out but where was the fight all he did was rotating the strike to the tail

[size=14pt]Why should Shiv protect the tail ? Did you see Trent Boult bat at #11 and score 38 not out ? WI tailenders must learn how to bat. Shiv is not in the protection business.[/size]
