[size=18pt][size=14pt]We all know the greatest joy in life is the joy of giving. But there are also joys in ordinary things. And one such joy from henceforth will be the joy of any West Indies defeat.[/size][/size]

* That is 100% correct, but previous West Indies defeats were not celebrated with joy. From henceforth all West Indies defeats will be joyfully celebrated.
Three players made their Test debuts in March 1994 : All left-handers who would enjoy long and decorated careers !
Matthew Hayden, Stephen Fleming and Shivnarine Chanderpaul.
Fleming lasted until 2008, Hayden until 2009. Chanderpaul kept going, and going, and going.
And now he's gone, dumped by the selectors at the age of 40.
For the first time in in 21 years, West Indian fans must consider a Chanderpaul-less future.

ONLY 5 BATSMEN SCORED MORE RUNS THAN CHANDERPAUL BETWEEN 1994 AND 2015
[size=14pt]* Tendulkar, Ponting, Kallis and Dravid were treated with respect and allowed to retire with dignity. Sangakkara will retire with dignity in August.

* BUT THE NASTY VERMINS AT THE WICB TREATED CHANDERPAUL LIKE SHYT.
* That's why every West Indies defeat from henceforth must be celebrated with joy by genuine Chanderpaul supporters.
[size=14pt]If Coach Phil Simmons, selector Clive Lloyd or any of the directors of the WICB who kicked Shiv out of WI cricket without the dignity of a farewell test were to drop dead the Rev would gladly and joyfully pay for their coffins. [/size]
