Tamil Nadu couple has a son:
Shivnarain Chanderpal was born in Guyana to Kamaraj and Uma who are natives of Tamil Nadu. Ever since his debut for West Indies, he has been on a roll. Having scored more than 20,000 runs in international cricket, he has stood as an impregnable barrier and suffocated many legendary bowlers. However, his fame did not spread widely.
Just as Rahul Dravid, the tiger, was largely unknown to fans in India before Sachin Tendulkar, the lion, Chanderpaul’s fame was not given much limelight by Brian Lara, the legend.
Sticker Chanderpal:
The legendary Chanderbal, every time he enters the field, has a black sticker under both his eyes. Many people would have had a question as to why he is playing with that sticker. Let’s see about that now.
2 reasons:
First reason:
This means that when batting for a long time in the field, the sunlight hits the eyes directly and blurs the vision. Due to this, there is a high chance of getting distracted and losing the game quickly. There is also a chance of dropping a catch while fielding. To deal with this, Chanderpal has a sticker under his eyes. By sticking the sticker under the eyes, sunlight does not hit our eyes directly. Hence, the chance of blurred vision is very less.
2nd Reason:
The black sticker under the eyes sometimes features letters. It’s advertising. This will also earn him income. That too can generate revenue in crores. He is the only person to use his face for advertising while playing. What are you thinking about?
