SHIV'S STRIKE RATE Compared To Other Successful Batsmen

[size=16pt]As Shiv(11,583 ) approaches 12,000 runs in test cricket, which would make him the highest runs scorer in West Indies history, many West Indians who can't bear the thought of an East Indian becoming the highest scoring West Indian in tests are out with their daggers. They are manufacturing excuses to denigrate the Tiger. Currently they are attacking Shiv's "slow" strike rate.[/size]


LET US TAKE A LOOK AT THE STRIKE RATES OF THESE OUTSTANDING AND SUCCESSFUL BATSMEN

43.36 SR---Chanderpaul(52.65 avg)
42.51 SR---Dravid(52.31 avg)
42.18 SR---Barrington(58.61 avg)
41.09 SR---Border(50.50 avg)
40.45 SR---Worrell(49.48 avg)
38.07 SR---Hammond(58.45 avg)
37.37 SR---Hutton(56.67 avg


OBSERVATION:

* Shiv has a  similar STRIKE RATE to all of the successful batsmen above.

* By the way, did any of the West Indian Shiv HATERS ever complain about Worrell's Strike Rate(40.45) ? Did they call him selfish for batting too slow ?

* No! They called him the father of their cricket.

[size=12pt]* Like I said, the criticism of Shiv's batting and his strike rate has to do with the fact that he will soon become the highest runs scoring West Indian in history, and some West Indians cannot accept an East Indian being the highest scoring West Indian.[/size]

EXCELLENT POST BY NARPER OVER AT CC

Quote:[size=12pt]On this board.....What is a west indian?

or better WHO is a west Indian?

I will tell you....in dem books he(Shiv Chanderpaul) does not look like a west indian...he does not bat like a west indian...THEREFORE HE IS NOT A WEST INDIAN

In dem books....he is selfish....he plays for not out only....he couldn't care less for the team

In dem book....his stats are irrelevant

They are irritated now....since he is about to be the record holder of the most runs scored by a "west Indian'

You see me...I am from de mudland....I am one of the few mudlanders who studied and lived among west Indians for sometime.....and now in Canada who continue to be amongst west Indians.....I can easily recognize de type....de haters....those who feel dem have de monopoly in any WI team..BY BIRTHRIGTH [/size]

This is Chapter 1: empirical evidence to follow  ::LOL::

Empirical evidence (also empirical data, sense experience, empirical knowledge, or the a posteriori) is a source of knowledge acquired by means of observation or experimentation. The term comes from the Greek word for experience, Εμπειρία (empeiría)

they are looking for any excuse to kick him out of the side before he can break the record!

[size=12pt]It's a fait accompli, a done deal. Shiv will get to 12,000. Butts and Gibson were shown the door. Shiv is still there. And with PPP supporter Clive Lloyd as chief selector, Shiv can play for a long as he wants.[/size]
