West Indies 97-3, chasing 370 to win
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 27 - 04 - 2012

Shivnarine Chanderpaul became the 10th batsman in cricket history to pass 10,000 test runs as West Indies battled to 97-3 in pursuit of 370 to beat Australia in the third and final cricket Test Thursday.
The 37-year-old Chanderpaul, in his 140th match, went to tea unbeaten on 29, with West Indies still 273 away from its formidable target at Windsor Park.
Guyanese left-hander Chanderpaul, who made his debut in 1994, brought up the landmark with his 14th run, an on-drive for a single off Australia captain Michael Clarke.
He is the second West Indian to the milestone after Brian Lara, who ranks fifth on the list with 11,953.
Chanderpaul and Darren Bravo (23 not out) shared a restorative, unbroken partnership of 52 for the third wicket after the hosts slipped to 45-3.
Clarke took 2-21 with his left-arm spin while pacer Ben Hilfenhaus claimed 1-2.
Hilfenhaus grabbed Adrian Barath for a duck just before lunch while Clarke removed Kraigg Brathwaite (14) and Kieran Powell (24) during the second session. Brathwaite was lbw missing a pull, a marginal decision confirmed by the TV replays after the batsman sought a review.
Powell was bowled leg stump as he drove, the ball turning back through the gap between bat and pad. The left-hander hit four fours off 52 balls. Australia earlier was bowled out for 259 after resuming its second innings on 200-6.
Offspinner Shane Shillingford finished with 4-100 to complete a match haul of 10-219.
Shillingford, from Dublanc on the north-west coast of Dominica, was the first West Indies spinner to achieve that feat since 1966 when Lance Gibbs claimed 10
