Shiv makes a hundred by proxy

I remember the first time I saw the score card in which Agit Agarkar made a test hundred at lords.

I started off the standard what the fuck type noise.

But then I thought, well he often goes out early but it’s not as if he can’t bat, he’s just a bit of an idiot.

And now he has a hundred at lords, well done.

Now Jerome Taylor has a test century.

Weird.

Jerome’s top score before this was 31, perfect preparation for a test century.

31 in 33 innings after 20 tests, and then bang, a hundred.

At a run a ball as well.

No fucking around there.

But as usual, captain marvellous, aka lord mega chief of gold, aka Shivnarine Chanderpaul, saved the day, he gave Taylor some advice.

He said “bat and bat and bat”.

What better advice could you give a man with no half century in first class cricket.

That is the problem with most batsmen ofcourse, they bat and bat and then go out, if they could just bat and bat, and bat, they would make more centuries.

That is the thing about shiv, even when he doesn't hundreds, he makes hundreds.

How many other batsman can boast that, not many.

This advice is gold though.

Ask Jerome, he was asked to do it once, and he made a hundred.

You should try it.
