CRICKET: Shivnarine Chanderpaul held Lancashire’s batting together with a maiden hundred for the county against Hampshire at the Rose Bowl today.
The prolific West Indian left hander, who hit 92 on debut in last week’s draw at Durham, helped his side recover from 41-3 on the opening day of their County Championship match with a fine 118 off 217 balls.
Shivnarine Chanderpaul will be honoured on Sunday for his outstanding contributions in his profession, as part of the Indian Arrival Committee (IAC) activities to commemorate the 172nd anniversary of the arrivals of Indians in Guyana.
