The standout aspect of Shivnarine Chanderpaul's Test career has been his consistency,
and his prolific run even after he turned 35 8)

Between the beginning of 2007 and November 2014 :
Shivnarine Chanderpaul averaged 71.71
in Tests, scoring 16 centuries in 57 matches
Re: Age-defying stunts ! - ketchim - 01-23-2016
Out of the 11867 Test runs he scored in his entire career, 9411 - or 79% - of his aggregate
came when batting at Nos. 5 or 6.
Only Steve Waugh, with 9919 runs from 221 innings, has scored more from those two positions,
while these two are the only batsmen to play 200 or more innings from these positions.

Among the current batsmen, Michael Clarke and AB de Villiers have strong numbers at those positions,
but both have moved up the order after the retirements of Ricky Ponting and Jacques Kallis
note : PuP has now retired
