Profile
Following his father's footsteps, young Tagenarine Brandon Chanderpaul has been prophesied to become the leader of the next generation of West Indies batsmanship. An uncluttered mind, fierce focus, a considerably high backlift and the obvious left-handed approach continues to draw parallels with his father. The son even hammers the bail onto the crease, just like Shivnarine.

After fine tuning his skills at the Under-17 and Under-19 levels, Tagenarine made his First Class debut for Guyana against Leewards, playing alongside his dad in March 2013. Notably, he even won the 2011 U-15 Cricketer of the Year Award instituted by the Guyana Cricket Board.

He provided further evidence of his burgeoning talent in the Under-19 World Cup in the UAE in 2014, striking 293 runs in 6 encounters including a ton and two fifties. Comparison's with Shiv will chase him throughout his career but if early signs are anything to go by, then Tagenarine might live up to the top billing.

Lesser known facts:
Tagenarine is ambidextrous with the ball.
