Shiv for Test Only? Is this guy for real...

Chanderpaul should only be picked for Test matches

Congratulations to our Shivnarine Chanderpaul on his rise to the top of the world ratings.

While Chanderpaul has been our most reliable batsman over the last 14 years it has become clear to me that this young man no longer plays for his team and only plays for himself and his world rating. Especially in our one-dayer and 20/20 matches when the West Indies are in dire straits for runs – boundaries – Chanders still continues to nudge the ball around for a single, ambles down to the other end, leaving the scoring and chance of being out to the other batsman.

Mr Editor, we have lost too many matches and series because of this ploy.

My appeal to the WI selectors therefore is not to pick the Tiger in these limited over matches. Let him play in Test matches only.

Yours faithfully,
Randolph Joseph Eleazar


Is this guy for real or the hate in him just coming out? or is he just facting ignorant?

Shiv currently ranked #5 in the ICC ODI ratings and the ONLY Windian in the top 10. The other WI player 2nd, on the list is Gayle @17. smile Shiv ODI average for the last 12 months is 66+ .. What's wrong with dis guy? lol

I believe the writer is Poster Joshua.

He has been MIA a while now, busy composing and re-composing his short and precise anti-Shiv letter to Stabroek.

Mr Eleazer,

It seems that you know nothing or very little of WI cricket, if Chanders does not hold an end the entire team would be out long before the match ends. What is does is play the ball on its merit unlike many of the other WI batsmen including Gayle. He does not get carried away. How many time have you seen Gayle and others getting out trying to hit the 3rd consecutive 4.
Many of the other WI team members needs to learn discipline in blocking the good balls and disposing the bad balls after getting settled. You take chances when you have wicket in hands and this puts pressure on the bowling side.
Hope that you are enlightened.
