Holder loves his team

 
sgtdjones 2017-09-12 10:19:12 

I wouldn’t trade this squad for the world, says West Indies captain Jason Holder. In the past few months, Cricket West Indies were considering senior players’ selection in the Test team, who are playing in various T20 leagues, and gave permission to those, ahead of series against Zimbabwe and New Zealand.

Holder has expressed his opinion on the big guns joining the West Indies Test team, saying, “we have the best of the lot right now.”

The list of players includes Sunil Narine, Darren Bravo, Chris Gayle and Kieron Pollard.

Holder will learn the hard way. It's wise to shut up

Guardian did a really poor job..or at least..maybe this is exactly what they wanted to do.

Reading the original article..it didnt come across the way the Guardian has now put it.

Careless journalism


Compare to cricinfo's coverage

Darren Bravo and Gayle on Test radar, but others 'not interested'

 
DIEHARD 2017-09-12 10:52:12 

Besides..if i was Holder..I'd be happy with this squad too..cos quite frankly..i knew it would be wrong for a Dwayne Bravo or Ramdin to calling me skip, knowing why they lost the job that I now have...I would be happy with these bunch of guys that i actually am senior to.

But Holder, West Indies' captain, suggested that, apart from Bravo and perhaps Gayle, he "didn't think there's anybody interested in playing Test cricket that we can call upon."

"But apart from those two players I don't think there's anybody else we can really look to."



Ah tink dem was bad words. How did he know nobady wants to play.

The comments say it all above.

Man just trying to secure his game. With DJ Bravo and/or Russell back there is no need for him.

Don't piss off seniors?? He is the skipper mate... These seniors are the reason we rank at the bottom.

Weak knees Russell? I thought he told Lloyd that his knees can't stand the rigors of test cricket.

,

Holder said that except Bravo and Gayle, he didn’t think any other player was interested to play Test matches. “Darren Bravo is a guy who has done well for us in the recent past. But apart from Darren I don’t think there’s anybody else who’s interested in playing Test cricket that we can really call upon or the so-called big names people are looking for




A bunch of Trinies knowing Captain Holder is speaking the truth, getting all worked up.

The fact that he says he won't change his squad, shows how clueless he really is...

He seems to be as smart as Courtney Browne considering he wants to stick with a player like Dropwich lol

Hola..Holder cant even make a club side in Winnipeg...
Adios Cb

 
Toney 2017-09-12 20:38:25 

Holder and the WI are far better off without them over hyped senior players. From my observation of Holder from a far, he does not seem assertive enough to command or demand the respect of dem prima donnas T20 licit practitioners .

 
DIEHARD 2017-09-13 09:22:06 

In reply to Toney

Holder is far better off.

The WI ...not so much.

That's the problem..self serving lot

 
TheTrail 2017-09-13 14:19:15 

These are the same seniors who brought the WI cricket down from #1 in 2000 to #7 in 2014.

T20 rubbish cricket is where they belong.
