West Indies captain Jason Holder blasts critics 

by October 10th, 2018

West  Indies  captain  Jason  Holder  blasted his  teams  critics  today  after  they  completed  their  final training  session  at  the  Rajiv Ghandi  stadium in Hyderabad, ahead  of  the  second  and  final  test  against  India  which  gets  underway   tomorrow.

Holder pointed  out  that  even  a  far  superior  team  of  the  90’s  which  included  the  legendary  Brian  Lara could not  win  a  test  series  in  India.

The  West  Indies  last  drew  an  away  test  series  against  India  way  back  in 1994, when Lara  scored  91  at  Mohali – his  only  test  series  in India.

The  ‘Windies playing  without  Holder  folded  for a  massive  innings  and  272  run beaten  in the  first  test  in Rajkot.

Former  west  indies  captain  Carl  Hooper  has  been  among  the  recent  critics.

He  was  critical  of   youngsters in the  region  saying  they  were  only  interested  in T/20 contracts.

Holder  also  expressed  disagreement  with the  theory  that  west  indies  can go  the  Bangladesh  way  by  concentrating  on one  format,  maybe  one  day  internationals  or  T/20.

Looking ahead to the match Holder told reporters that his players must show more consistency in performance.
