Even at 40 Shiv is the most reliable and committed batsmen out there. And he has always given his best performances be it an ODI, Test or even a T20. Its really great to see him still playing and batting like the way he is now, truly awesome.

And IDK why he should either. He still is the backbone of the test side IMO. Go Shiv!

Shiv is 40 years old and still going well so I don't see why he should go now. I see him playing at the top level for least two more years. Shiv is always reliable and he is the backbone of the West Indies test batting.

* Shiv is fitter and healthier than ever, and very importantly he is still ranked among the Top 6 batsmen in the world.

* Shiv has made it clear that he still has goals to achieve in test cricket and will continue playing if selected.

* Shiv is currently playing in his 157th test. Who knows he may have his sight on Tendulkar's 200. :D

BOTTOM LINE:

* As long as Shiv continues to be passionate and enthusiastic about his cricket, as long as he continues to be fit, and as long as he continues to perform with distinction, Shiv should keep playing test cricket.

* Shiv(5910) needs 90 runs to reach 6000 at HOME.

* Hopefully he'll get to 6000 in the Caribbean and score his 30th hundred in the next test.

* Only 6 batsmen in test history have scored 6000 runs at HOME----surprisingly Dravid did not score 6000 runs in India.

I have to agree with you here. Although he is aging very fast now, he is still scoring runs more than other Windies batsman. So I don't see why he should retire right now. He should play as long as he can spot the red and white ball.

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

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"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.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."		(13.09.2025, 10:58)(10:58)0
