Chanderpaul epic sets up Durham[/size]
A double-century from Shivnarine Chanderpaul ensured Durham will end the season as the only unbeaten side

Dale Benkenstein, who scored a century in that Durham match with Shiv, is the current first-team coach for Hampshire.
Shiv finished that 2009 season with an average of 85.37 for Durham, third best among all county cricketers that year, behind only Hashim Amla (102.50) and Mark Ramprakash (90.00).

Think he was ICC number 1 ranked that year as well. He's currently still in the ICC test rankings for this year, ranked 10th.
