Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
In his first six Test matches, Shillingford only managed to take 18 wickets but he gradually improved thereafter. He, particularly shone in the 2011/2012 season when Australia toured West Indies and Shillingford was included in the squad for the second Test. Shillingford took six wickets in the first innings (his first five-fer) and four in the second, making him the first West Indian spinner to take ten wickets in a Test since Lance Gibbs in 1966. In the following tour against England his form dipped again as he was not selected for the first Test and managed just one wicket in the second one while conceding 138 runs. When West Indies toured India in November 2013, Shillingford was the only West Indian bowler who offered some fightback in Tests. He finished the two-match series with impressive figures of 6/167 in the first game and 5/1797 in the second, becoming the joint second-highest wicket-taker in the series.
The following month though, the ICC suspended the lanky offie from bowling after his action was found to be illegal. It was reported that Shillingford's doosra breached the 15 degrees tolerance permitted by the rulebook. Incidentally, this was the second time that the Shillingford came under the scanner.
In March 2013, he was cleared for international return after remodelling his bowling action.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Shane Shillingford appeared on the domestic scene in 2000/01, but despite an impressive first-class record, he struggled to break into the Test side. After several years of toil, he finally came into his own during the A team's matches against England at home, and in Bangladesh in 2010. Having overcome the problems posed by a suspect action, he finally earned his maiden Test call the same year, for the first home Test against South Africa. He made an impression on the rain-affected Sri Lanka tour that followed, but his action was later deemed illegal. He underwent remedial work and worked his way back into the side for the Bangladesh tour in 2011. His first six Tests fetched him 18 wickets, but he took it up a few notches when he returned to the Test side in 2012, taking his first five-for and ten-wicket match haul, against Australia in Roseau.
He had an impressive series against Zimbabwe in March 2013, finishing with 19 wickets in two Tests, including another ten-wicket haul in Roseau. He was the highest wicket-taker for West Indies on the tour to India, with 11 wickets in two Tests, but was reported once again for a suspect action during the second Test in Mumbai.
He was suspended from bowling in international cricket for the second time in his career in December 2013, during West Indies' tour of New Zealand, with the ICC stating that the degree of elbow flex in his standard off-break and doosra deliveries exceeded the permitted 15 degrees. Shillingford underwent remedial work on his action and was cleared for an international return in March 2014. However, with his doosra still deemed illegal, he struggled in the first series after his return, taking five wickets in two Tests against New Zealand.
