WEST INDIES – Cricket fever is taking over as the countries that take cricket as their religions hang on to the edge of their teams as players are being pushed to their limits by their tams to bring home big wins.
the current skipper accepted the fact that Jason is one their best all rounders and he is needed to help the team to win matches and is hopeful that for the next few matches there will be no loses.
Former skipper Holder missed the 3-0 series defeat against Bangladesh in Guyana as selectors wanted to manage his workload as one of the West Indies’ all-format players.
“As we all know Jason is one of the leading all-round cricketers in the world and we’re happy to have him back in the team,” said lead selector Desmond Haynes.
“He will be refreshed, re-energised and ready to go and we can expect to see his brilliance on the field as well as meaningful contributions off the field as well.”
Haynes added: “We had a very challenging three matches against Bangladesh. We need to regroup and play better against the India.”
The three matches will be played on Friday, Sunday and Wednesday, July 27, at Queen’s Park Oval in Trinidad.
West Indies squad: Nicholas Pooran (captain), Shai Hope, Shamarh Brooks, Keacy Carty, Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Brandon King, Kyle Mayers, Gudakesh Motie, Keemo Paul, Rovman Powell, Jayden Seales
