I think shiv reminds mail of cowdrey and boycott but shiv greater than both of those guys.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Shiv is a late bloomer. Check out his batting average in his first 10 years in tests and his average in his last 10 years.
STATS
*
THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE FOLKS
* 43.89 first 10 years; 61.07 the last 10 years.
*
And the 40 year old TIGER doesn't look like he is slowing down----he is getting better with age.
