I believe if Chander had open all of his time in ODI's, he would have had a better record. Coming down the order late sometimes and coming early when the team is in loads of trouble isn't easy at all. Well, he is easily the  best batsman after Lara in the Windies side.
In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage.

Yup I agree with the last part of that statment spin! He's definately the best batsman on the team now that Lara is gone.

Chanderpaul is a player who gets the job done. If you want him to stay in and hold up an end he will do it. If you are chasing 300+ and need an explosive cameo he can do it. He his scoring at a faster rate than people give him credit for. He is indispensable to the West Indies team and cannot be replaced.

For some reason I really want the guy to achieve- he's a quiet achiever, a likable guy who in all honesty is playing in a lost cause for the Windies.
Good one Graham!

I like him alot when he's at the crease. That strange stance that looks so awkward, his relaxed temperament that pretty much says "I'm not bothered what you bowl at me, I'm not getting out to you," and the way that he builds an innings is also very strange to see in modern test cricket.
He can take forever to get off the mark it seems but he won't play a single expansive shot until he's ready to and this is why he normally makes good scores.

excelelnt summation there tyke, his 65 no. is a perfect application of that theory; he only scored 7 boundaries.
Good one Graham!

And why would Wes Indies want to drop Chanderpaul, for me he can also play in a Pro20 too.
