CHANDERPAUL'S Circumspect 85* Burns His HATERS

* You're right! Shiv's 50 was not workmanlike. It's circumspect. I'll edit the TITLE.

* The 146* run partnership between Shiv and Brathwaite, largest partnership in the innings so far, has put the West Indies in a winning position.

* But the dunce angry HATERS don't see it that way.

* It pains those losers to see Shiv continue to be successful at the ripe age of 40.

* By the way, I notice only 143 overs have been bowled in the 2 days---that means there were some interruptions---and such interruptions may have affected the scoring rate.


BOTTOM LINE:

* THE HATERS WANT SHIV OUT AND WON'T BE HAPPY UNTIL HE IS DISMISSED.

I have not seen any of this match.


Was the Bangladeshi's bowling very good?

Gooooooooooo  Shhhiiivvvv !

Target the Ton : SR is unimportant at this stage of a 5 day Game !

98 overs minimum per day = 300 overs 

plus final hour .

3 wickets fell . One opener is on a double hundred !

Shiv is playing in his first test match after age 40+, and that explains his cautiousness in his innings thus far. The old man knows he has to put up a respectable personal score. ;D


TIDBITS ON PLAYERS AFTER AGE 40

* Tendulkar played 2 tests after age 40---he scored 84 runs with a 50 vs WI
