IPL MVP Awards: Narine has 3 (2012, 2018, 2024). Holder has 0.

Comparing Sunil Narine to Jason Holder is a mismatch, especially in the IPL context. Holder is a respected "runs truck "cricketer, but Narine is a three-time MVP. It’s cute that you’re worried about birds while Holder is busy being a human target for sixes. I’d be salty too if my team’s hero was best known for being the tallest guy to ever get dropped from an IPL roster.

 If you keep talking about birds, remember that the only "birds" in this conversation are the ducks Holder and his teammates record when Narine is bowling.😎

 Narine has been incredibly economical against Holder in the IPL, conceding only 2 runs across the 10 balls bowled.

In the current 2026 IPL season, both players are among the most economical bowlers in the league, with Narine (Kolkata Knight Riders) maintaining an economy of 6.51 and Holder (Gujarat Titans) close behind at 6.65.

 Jason Holder and Sunil Narine have faced each other in 8 matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL).Across these encounters, Narine has held a significant upper hand in terms of run containment.

Narine remains the CPL's leading wicket-taker with 130 wickets as of 2025, but Holder has generally played him cautiously to avoid early exits.

 Despite Holder being the second-highest T20I wicket-taker for the West Indies, Narine is one of the few players he has yet to dismiss in a professional T20 match.

Jason Holder has bowled to Sunil Narine in 3 matches across their professional careers as of May 2026.While Holder has often struggled to get Narine out, he has been effective at keeping him relatively quiet compared to Narine's usual explosive style at the top of the order.

All of a sudden Jason Holder looks like the best thing since sliced-bread. Whether bowling, batting, or fielding he seems to be on a high. Gwaan JHo!

Must be the effect of the coach.
