| Test #1836 Records : Chanderpaul remains... |
| Test #1836 West Indies in England 2007 ( 4 th Test ) at Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street The latest test series between West Indies and England resulted in the same manner as did the every series in the new millennium. After winning the first test of the new millennium played at Edgbaston from June 15 th to 17 th inside three days by a huge margin of an innings and 93 runs, they are yet to register a test victory against England . West Indies went on to surrender The John Wisden Trophy in 2000 series by losing three of the next four tests with the rain ruined third test played at Old Trafford ending in a draw. Thus they ended their supremacy of last 27 years of 20 th century during which they never lost a test series to England . Odds were never in their favor to regain the John Wisden Trophy even before they started the 2007 series. Yes, not even before Brian Lara announced his retirement from the international Cricket immediately after the World Cup debacle. However they did put up a good show in the first test at Lord’s though weather ruined the proceedings and helped West Indies in escaping the test match with a draw. If Chanderpaul’s absence in the 2 nd test was itself a major blow for the West Indies , they took another crushing blow when their captain Ramnaresh Sarwan suffered a series ending injury in the second test before even taking a batting stance. There after things went from bad to worse with Chris Gayle not being able to take off at all and their stop-gap skipper Daren Ganga having a horrible existence at the crease since taking over the captaincy with scores of 5 & 9, 5 & 0 , 0 & 6. The Brilliance of Bravo and Resilience of Chanderpaul could not stop West Indies from losing last three tests even though it looked as if West Indies might avoid a defeat while Chanderpaul and Bravo were batting in last two tests. So England extends their streak of not losing a test match to West Indies to sixteen and West Indies requires a tremendous amount of reversal in their cricketing fortunes even to dream of regaining the John Wisden trophy when they host England in 2009. Following are some of the statistical highlights of the fourth test of the 2007 series: Though England dominated the test series from every imaginable angle, one batsman they could not corner was Shivnarine Chanderpaul. Chanderpaul topped the batting averages for both sides but ended up on the losing side as he did in 2004 notching up plethora of test records in the process. He batted for more than 1000 minutes without getting dismissed while making 116* in the 2 nd innings of the 3 rd test at Old Trafford and 136* & 70 in the 4 th test at Chester-le-Street . This is the third time he recorded this feat in his test career. Only five other batsmen achieved this record in test history and none of them had done it more than once. Following is the list of all such occasions. Player Vs Venue Series Inns Score C.Runs Mts T.Mts B/F T.

However Stephen Fleming of New Zealand holds the record for batting longest period of 956 minutes without getting dismissed in a single test with the scores of 274* (653) & 69* (303) against Sri Lanka at Colombo (PSS) in 2003. Fleming however was dismissed for a duck in the next match after batting for just 5 mts thus missing the 1000 mts mark. Chanderpaul’s latest 1000+ minutes batting between dismissals also makes him the owner of another interesting record. For the second time in his career he now has witnessed 20 or more wickets falling consecutively at the other end while he himself remained not out. In the third test at Old Trafford he came into bat at 88 for 3 and remained unbeaten at the close of West Indian innings, thus seeing seven of his teammates losing their wickets. In the fourth test at Chester-le-Street , Chanderpaul came into bat at 34 for 3 and remained not out again for 136 witnessing seven more wickets falling at the other end. In the second innings of the same test he stepped in at 38 for 3 and saw six wickets falling at the other end before becoming the last batsman out in the innings for 70. However Chanderpaul's unbeaten tenure at the crease which made him saw 20 of his side’s dismissals is still one dismissal short of his record 21 dismissals he witnessed during his record 1513 minutes of unbeaten batting against India in 2001-02 as he saw 6 wickets falling during his 2 nd innings knock of 67* at Port of Spain, 6 wickets during 101* at Bridgetown, 6 wickets during 136* at St. John’s and 3 wickets during his 1 st innings knock of 58 at Kingston. No other batsmen in the history of test cricket batted with such patience and perseverance to endure so many wickets falling at the opposite end. The closest to Chanderpaul’s record is 18 dismissals shared by Jacques Rudolph of South Africa and Kumara Sangakkara of Sri Lanka . Rudolph made 154* at Auckalnd and 93* & 0 at Wellington in 2003-04 series against New Zealand whereas Sangakkara made 100* at Christchurch and 156* & 8 at Wellington against the same opposition in 2006-07. They both came at the fall of first wicket in their unbeaten innings. When the West Indian skipper Daren Ganga was out lbw to the first ball of the test match bowled by Ryan Sidebottom, he not only became the 26 th player to be dismissed by the first ball of a Test Match but also just the third captain to have suffered the ignominy. At Headingley in 1926, acting as a stop-gap captain in the absence of the appointed captain Herbie Collins just like Darren Ganga, Warren Bardsley of Australia became the first captain to have suffered the fate of getting out to the first ball of a test match.. Seventy three years later Sri Lankan skipper Sanath Jayasuriya fell to the first ball of the match, bowled by Australia 's Glenn McGrath at Galle in 1999-00. For the entire list of batsmen who were out to the first legitimate delivery of a test match refer to the table in my posting on Test #1832 which saw India’s opener Wasim Jaffer shouldering his arms to an incoming delivery from Bangladesh’s Mashrafe Mortaza to lose his stumps to the first ball of a test match and provide 25 th such instance. For the Trivia buffs : When AC MacLaren of Australia was out to the first ball of the Melbourne test in 1894/95 of the bowling of Arthur Conningham, he provided first such instance. It was also Arthur Conningham’s first delivery in his test career . Mohsin Khan’s dismissal with the first ball of 1983/84 test at Jalandhar by Kapil Dev and Sunil Gavaskar’s first ball dismissal by Imran Khan at Jaipur provides the only two instances in test cricket a wicket falling to the first ever ball bowled at a particular venue. Sunil Gavaskar of India and Hannan Sarkar of Bangladesh are the only batsmen to have suffered fate of losing their wicket to the first ball of a test match on three separate occasions whereas Geoff Arnold of England (2), Richard Hadlee of New Zealand (2) , Kapil Dev of India (2) and Pedro Collins of West Indies (3) are the only bowlers to have taken a wicket with the first delivery bowled in a test match on more than one occasion. Hannan Sarkar also holds the record for getting out to the first delivery of a test match in three consecutive tests, which as of today are his last three matches of his test career. Keith Stackpole of Australia in 1973/74 at Auckland against New Zealand and Wasim Jaffer against Bangladesh at Chittagong followed up their first ball dismissal of a test match with another duck in their second innings. SJ Cook of South Africa and LV Garrick of New Zealand were out to the first ball of a test match while making their test debut. Except Zimbabwe batsmen of all test playing nations have at least one batsmen or bowler involved in a first ball dismissal in a test match. During his first innings knock of 136* Chanderpaul crossed the ’s 7000 test runs milestone and became the 7 th West Indian and 30 th test cricketer to have done so. Following is the list of all players with 7000 or more test runs.

For those who don't know Geeta Dut she was the wife of late actor/producer/director Guru Dutt.As a kid I never really knew anything about her. Until few years back.

| Pooja Bar |
| Pooja Bar Dear Friends, this is neither about a Girl called Pooja, nor about a Bar, nor about a bargirl called Pooja.I mean exactly as I have titled this.And no, I did not fall in love with a Rakhee Sawant or Mallika Sherawat kind in the Pooja Bar.Read on. We started to construct our Bunglow in 83, and it took two years to shift in it.We were very excited , as no one in our 7 generations had ever made their own house brick by brick. We consulted half a dozen architects, they took the signing amounts, like the film stars and gave us the run for our money, and ultimately disappeared with the advance.Some gave us the designs, which were lousy.Ultimately we got one chap, who was not that popular, but gave us what we wanted. After we shifted in, we realized we had forgotton something.Mom said , “ Where is the Pooja Room “. Well we realized too late that a Pooja room is a must to please the Gods, otherwise calamities will occur.Well the Gods were kind to me and Harsha, maybe they were in a good mood, and spared us the ordeal.Thanks Boss. My Brother said, “ Where is the Bar “. That too I forgot, a must in my planning of things, but somehow The Pooja Room and the Bar, both got left out.Next house If I make these two will be a must. Now how to please the Gods, we pray once a year , at Diwali, that’s all.The other 364 days God comes to me in my sleep,asking for my welfare, I told him I am sorry I forget to place him, and he said “ Kamal I am in your heart, where no one can see me, good u did not make a Tamasha of me by keeping my statues of Marble, and praying loudly and disturbing my sleep., Like a lunantic.You just remember me, and I will be there, don’t make a spectacle of me.” So nice of the boss really.But anyway I had to keep some Gods, so at the entrance of my front door, in the verandah, we have kept Ganeshji or marble above the door, andit is still there after all these years.It is so high, over 8 feet I have never had the chance to go up and say Hi to Ganeshji.He is inside the hollow of the wall, and Birds over the years, specially sparrows come andlay their eggs at his feet, covering him with grass.And hundreds of deliveries have taken place at Ganeshji’s Feet. Well we made a small wodden stand , stuck to the wall where we have put up a few framed pictures of Gods.But there are so many Gods, and so little space, how does onemanage to please all gods eh ! But I went around the market, and some ingenious printers, have managed to put hundreds of Gods in one Picture.It is as though the gods are posing as a Group photo, like we do at the Weddings on the Stage.Somebody is sitting , some are standing, somebody is in somebody’s lap, and so on, and I paid 10/- for that wonderful picture, and I burn 4 aggarbattis to the bosses first thing when i go to office, say my thanks and get on with work. And when I want something from the Lord, I burn two more aggarbattis, well after all thisis a materialistic world isn’t it, after all in life too we have topay something under the table, to get our work done faster, so I do it the aggarbatti way.And he listens really.My God is reasonable. For the Bar, well I have a cabinet in the Drawing Room, where a small portion I stock my Liquor Bottles, a make do arrangement really.I have a very wide collection of liquors, ranging from all the imported Brands, the Vodkas,Scotch,Wines,you name it I have it, couresy my brothers and NRI cousins, they know what pleases me.But I hardly drink that, just my poor Indian Royal Stag, and wait for someone worthy to come home, so I too can have the Amrit called Black Label with them. But I need not worry about missing the Pooja Room and the Bar.Previously when we had to show our home to any newcomer, we used to show the Pooja Rooms, these days the trend is to show the guests the Bathrooms, which I did not forget to construct, so that makes up for the lapses of the past. And the Bathrooms are now 25 years old and due for renovations totally.Harsha has been after me, and so has Sita, well I will do it this year itself.But the bathrooms are still functional, and I have kind of got used to them.I feel it is a waste of good hard earned money, to spend on new Bathrooms, where even if u buy a Japanese 1 lakh Kamot, or the pot as u call it, u will only shit, and nothing else.But who is to explain this to my family. And since I will spend money to renovate the bathrooms I must have them inaugurated by someone, but cutting the ribbon and using the pot first, and we will stand and clap as is the custom these days . But I cant find anyone to inaugurate them.Who will do that among u, my friends ! I will send u a AC Train Ticket, everything paid for, and I will give u a copyof the photographs too which we will take out at the inauguration.Anyone Ready ! KAMAL MAHTANI
