During the conversation, Sachin Tendulkar heaped praise on current West Indies captain Jason Holder, and spoke about how underrated an all-rounder the Barbadian is.
Jason Holder contributes on a regular basis: Sachin Tendulkar
Sachin Tendulkar spoke about Jason Holder’s regular contributions with the bat as well as with the ball, and that this makes him a terrific player to have in a team.
In the conversation, Brian Lara also made it a point to mention how ‘critical’ Jason Holder’s captaincy is for the West Indies side. Holder is only the second West Indies player to be ranked the number one Test all-rounder, after the great Sir Garry Sobers.
Jason Holder has been ranked the number one Test all-rounder since January 2019, with 473 points. Ben Stokes, England’s stand-in captain for the first Test, is ranked second on that list with a point tally of 407.
Jason Holder and his side will be looking for a successful return to competitive cricket, and would want to draw inspiration from their series win against England at home earlier in 2019.
