I am alive after getting 4 hours of sleep in last like 4 days, that's an achievement, bigger than anything Shiv Chanderpaul did in cricket
OMG , that sounds incredibly tough, I'm so sorry you're going through this , insomnia really sucks .....

Really? I essentially posted Lara and Chanderpaul and Chanderpaul scored 100s at a much lower rate than Lara. Could've subbed Steve Waugh for Chanderpaul, same results. Fact remains, imo rpi is more valuable a stat that actual average, again otherwise people on here need to leave Shiv alone.
Is 50-50-50 and 50-40-42* are typical patterns of scoring of Lara and Chanderpaul? Hope you can make a statistically sound argument for that.

I think the closest Lara comes is vs India 2002

52 and 47 in Port of Spain, 55 in Bridgetown.

Of course Shiv came away with 1 and 67* followed by 101*

Shiv definitely boosted his average with his negative, selfish batting with tail enders.The worst batsman to average more than 45.

At least Shiv had to shoulder the main bat responsibilities for his team.
Yeah but I think Jaya and MoYo probably won more games for their countries than Shiv ever did, they also seemed to care a lot more about winning than Shiv did

All threes are players made to seem better by a flat bat era
