#7 Shivnarine Chanderpaul (West Indies)

New Zealand v West Indies - Third Test: Day 1
Chanderpaul ranks eighth in the highest run-getters chart in Test cricket

A man who often failed to get his due, Shivnarine Chanderpaul's international career span well over two decades but more often than not, he was fighting a lone battle with very little support from his fellow teammates in a below-par West Indian side.

With 11867 runs from 164 matches at an average of above 51, Chanderpaul ranks eighth in the list of leading run-scorers in Test cricket and was an outstanding servant of the West Indian cricket who had a rather unceremonious exit from the game.

Chanderpaul made his Test debut against England at Georgetown in 1994 and had to wait three years before scoring his first Test century but by the time he played his final Test match against the same opposition at Bridgetown in 2015, the West Indies legend had scored 30 Test tons to cement his place as one of the game's all-time greats.
