Tagenerin Chandrapaul’s innings, which scored 207 runs off 467 balls, consisted of 16 fours and 3 sixes.

West Indies cricketer Tagnarin Chandrapaul made history on Monday by scoring his maiden Test century in the first match against Zimbabwe. Tagenerin reached the three-figure mark on Day 3 of the tournament in Bulawayo. The 26-year-old didn’t stop there, converting his unbeaten century into an unbeaten double-century as West Indies’ first innings score of 447/6 was decided to end the innings. With the double century, Tagenerin became the second father-son duo to score a double century in Test cricket, joining his father Shivanarin Chandrapaul.

Tagenerin’s innings featured 16 fours and 3 sixes as he scored 207 runs off 467 balls and finished with a strike rate of 44.32. No other father-son duo has scored double centuries in Test cricket. Shivnarine has scored two double centuries in the Test format. One each against South Africa and Bangladesh. He finished with an unbeaten 203 on both occasions. He has a total of 30 Test centuries to his name, including his maiden century against India in 1997.

Tagenerin has also added his name to the elite list of father-son duos who have scored centuries in Test cricket. Tagenarine has only played two matches in his short career against the Zimbabwe team he is currently with. He has scored 160 runs including one half-century at an average of 40.00. In 53 first-class matches he has played, he has scored 3004 runs with 6 centuries and 12 half-centuries at an average of 35.76.

By

Sri Lanka Rugby has confirmed the appointment of former France international and seasoned rugby sevens coach Thierry Janeczek on a six-month contract to lead the national sevens team in preparation for the Asian Games in Aichi, Nagoya later this year.

Janeczek, who arrives in Colombo on March 20, will observe the two legs of the BogoLiv Union Pay International SLR Sevens Series before returning in April to formally begin his coaching programme. His initial contract runs for six months, with the possibility of extension based on the team’s performance at the Asian Games.

At 66, Janeczek brings decades of experience to the role. A former flanker with three caps for France, he made his mark in the sevens format, representing his country at the Rugby World Cup Sevens in 1993. He later coached the French national sevens team from 1996 to 2010, guiding them through more than 100 international tournaments and securing notable victories, including France’s first-ever international final win at the Paris Sevens in 2005.
His coaching résumé includes developing over 50 international players, training more than 100 certified coaches, and achieving Olympic success by leading France’s U18 team to gold at the 2014 Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China.

Inquiry Launched Over Bloomfield’s Controversial Declaration

Published

on

By

Sri Lanka Cricket has moved swiftly to launch an inquiry into Bloomfield Cricket and Athletic Club’s declaration during their Major Super Eight encounter against Moors Sports Club at Colts Grounds. The decision, which has been branded “unsporty” by critics, saw Bloomfield declare at 239 for 6 despite trailing on first innings, leaving Moors a modest chase of 147 runs. Moors completed the task comfortably, winning by four wickets in just 33 overs and reclaiming their place at the top of the table.

The declaration has raised serious questions about the spirit of competition, prompting SLC to summon captains, coaches, managers, and players from both sides for an official hearing this evening. At the heart of the probe lies a crucial issue: was Bloomfield’s move a bold tactical gamble or a breach of cricketing integrity?

With domestic cricket’s credibility now under the spotlight, the outcome of this inquiry could have significant consequences for the game in Sri Lanka, setting a precedent for how declarations and match strategies are judged in the future.
