Shivnarine Chanderpaul is considered by many as one of the best batters in cricket history. The left-handed batter from West Indies is best known for his unique batting stance and also placing stickers of black color under his eye. While Shivnarine retired long back, his son Tagenarine Chanderpaul has started playing Test cricket for the West Indies team now.
Tagenarine Chanderpaul recently played his first Test innings against the Indian cricket team. He had the opportunity to announce his arrival at the big stage by playing a big knock. However, the youngster failed to score big.
In this article now, we will look at the three bowlers who dismissed both father and son of the Chanderpaul family of West Indies.
1. Ravichandran Ashwin has dismissed Shivnarine Chanderpaul and his son
Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin became the first-ever Indian bowler to dismiss a pair of father and son in Test cricket history yesterday. During the early phases of his career, Ashwin had accounted for the wicket of Shivnarine, and yesterday, on the opening day of the India vs West Indies Test match at Dominica, he dismissed his son Tagenarine.
2. Mitchell Starc
Veteran Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc has also achieved this rare feat. Starc accomplished the record last year itself when the West Indies cricket team visited Australia for a two-match ICC World Test Championship series. During his early days as a cricketer, Starc picked up Shivnarine’s wicket.
3. Simon Harmer
South African player Simon Harmer is the last name on this list. Not many fans would remember but South Africa played a Test series against West Indies earlier this year, and it was in that series where Harmer dismissed Tagenarine. When he was younger, Harmer dismissed Shivnarine as well.
