Fast bowling great Sir Richard Hadlee has given Jason Holder a ringing endorsement, saying he is impressed with the cricketing skills and leadership of the young West Indies captain.
The former New Zealand fast bowler was speaking to a packed media conference at the Basin Reserve yesterday afternoon.
Together with West Indies bowling great, Sir Curtly Ambrose, he was previewing the all-important World Cup quarter-final between the New Zealanders and the Windies scheduled for the Wellington Regional Stadium tonight, Caribbean time.
“I like the look of the captain Jason Holder he seems very calm for someone so young and someone carrying so much responsibility,” said Sir Richard.
“He has formed a good new ball partnership with Jerome Taylor and I also like the look of him as well. They give the West Indies attack something to work with at the top.”
He added: “It is good when you have someone (Holder) so young who can take the team forward. He is handling himself quite well.”
