* Most West Indians would agree that Dravid and Sangakkara are greats.

* But when it comes to chanderpaul they are adamant that Shiv is not a great.

* Well, I am dissecting the numbers and Shiv is up there with Sangakkara and Dravid.

* Only a deeply prejudiced West Indian would proclaim Sangakkara and Dravid to be greats but not Shiv.

* THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE---SHIV, DRAVID & SANGA ARE ALL STATISTICAL GREATS.
