Pitches not conducive to big scores, says Windies skipper Holder

ORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad (CMC) – West Indies Test captain Jason Holder says the standard of regional pitches need to improve if teams are to produce more attractive cricket.

The 24-year-old, also the Barbados Pride skipper, said scores in the ongoing Regional Super50 had been low because pitches were slow and turning and not conducive to good stroke-play.

“It’s been tough. Obviously the scores are not what we’ve been accustomed to in one-day cricket and I think that’s been due to the slow pitches,” Holder said.
