GREATNESS: SHIV CHANDERPAUL vs SHIV CHARLES

Any batsman on this planet who has a 50+ test average and a consistency of 35+% is an automatic great. But in the West Indies if you have scored 10830 runs in tests at an average of 51.82 and a consistency of 35.45 you will not be perceived as a great if your name is Shiv Chanderpaul

---

but with a name like Shiv Charles----a 51.82 average and 35.45 consistency----that is automatic greatness.

SHIV CHANDERPAUL = VERY GOOD

SHIV CHARLES = WEST INDIAN GREAT


Prophet Mohamed said, "say the truth, even if it may be bitter or displeasing to some."

The above statement is the god's honest truth.

WHO VEX, VEX!

;D ha ha ha ha ha  ;D

Brian Lara: 52.88 test average/ 35.3% consistency----automatic greatness

Viv Richards: 50.23 average/37.9% consistency---automatic greatness

Gary Sobers: 57.78 average/35.00% consistency---automatic greatness

Everton Weekes: 58.62 average/ 41.9% consistency---automatic greatness

Shiv Charles: 51.82 test average/35.45% consistency---automatic greatness

Shiv Chanderpaul: 51.82 test average/35.45% consistency---sorry--Very Good--not great ;D


Only Lara, Richards, Sobers, 3Ws and Charles can be great in the West Indies---not Chanderpaul. ;D

The truth will set you free !..........BUT only IF you accept it...

Most west Indians are in DENIAL !

Most West Indians are not in denial----they are blatantly prejudiced against Shiv Chanderpaul being a great despite having great numbers---50+ average and 35% consistency.

How is it Shiv Charles can deemed a great and Shiv Chanderpaul with the identical stats as Shiv Charles is only deemed VERY GOOD ?

BLATANT PREJUDICE!


RE: DOMINANCE

Some of the blowhards say that Shiv is not dominant---so he can't be great.

What is this dominance the dunderheads talk about ?

Check this:

* Sobers had 758 4s and 32 6s in his 8032----38.4% of his runs were scored in boundaries

* Shiv has 1177 4s and 34 6s in his 10830----45.3% of his runs have been scored in boundaries


Did you folks see that ?

Sobers scored only 38.4% of his runs in boundaries; Shiv 45.3%

LINK to stats

BUT SOBERS DOMINANT & SHIV DORMANT ?  ;D

Rev

He would have been Sir Charles by now!!
