About Jason's batting that is. dat is what I said all last year. we need batsmen,class batsmen.
Holder wont really make it as a bowler but he can as a batsman. dat shud be his focus I argued. let him develop his batting. mek then all make him feel responsibility as a batsman and he shud become very good for the west indies.
you said about the same thing. its sweet to be right

Simmons team takin' shape
Blackwood..Holder..Hope in the wings. soon these guys should be in the top of the order. I do so want to see the bakc of Samules in particular. I really don't like that skunt as a player
I want to see the back of Devon as well. why the eff he did not push on and make a ton today and solidify his position >

and I am tired waiting on Darren Bravo for a 500 series. his time is now of forget it.
forget the gloves with Hope. Ramdin is solid. I jess wish he would be more dominant as cappo. maybe if they toss the small island mafia and would blossom as an on top of things cappo. Ambrose casts a huge dominant shadow
deh shud have made Ambrose HC. but if I know my players they prolly did and he refused..saying all he wants is to kerry the bowling. but he will kerry the team from the bowling coach position no matter who is head coach.
Ambrose is an impse like that >

Holder needs to be modelled on Kallis.
Kallis got most of his runs at 4 and 5, but that was when he was mature. In the 1990s, he started at 6, people recognised his skill, and he was promoted to 3 and 1, but mostly failed there.
Holder needs to bat at 5 and 6 for now, and give him a taste of 1 or 4 every now and then. If you permenently promote him to the top order too soon, he will fail like Kallis did.
What the South Africans also did with Kallis, before he cemented a place at 4, was let him bat at 3 or 6, depending upon which team batted first. If South Africa batted first, Kallis would go up the order. If they bowled first, he went down.
Like Kallis, Holder can also be a workhorse bowler. He doesn't need to take wickets, or increase his speed, he just needs to keep the run rate down.
WI's big problem is Bravo and Samuels. The former has less shots every year, the latter suffers from chronic dumbassery.
