Lara bats for Holders captaincy
Legendary West Indies batsman Brian Lara is impressed with what he has seen of new West Indies captain Jason Holder, and is calling for the WICB to give the young Barbadian its full support, which could lead him to being in charge of the team for all three formats of the game.
Speaking from Australia where he is currently doing analysis of the World Cup, Lara said he is impressed with the potential of the young allrounder, and he is confident Holder will develop into a good leader if he is given the backing of the Board.
“I am a Jason Holder fan. I like his approach to leadership and the way he has gone about his game. I can see him developing into the kind of leader who will give years of service to West Indies cricket, given the right kind of support.”
