I will stick to my 2 options that would have worked...play the same winning side..or Narine for Gabe.
that is the only improvement we could have made to the side.
Holder did not improve the side which is why we lost. but Holder did well in the match. he can bat well and I advise him to put a lot of emphasis on that..his batting. improve his bowling too but I dont think he can improve much as a bowler

I would love to see Carlos Brathwaite get a look in. He needs to at least start playing regularly on the WI ODI side.
I agree with the comments that he can bat. I don't think he should try to be a batsman purely but an all rounder. West indies is constantly in need of good batsmen and holder has shown that he can bat. A little more work in the nets on his batting and he can become a genuine all rounder.
* Jason Holder has the heaight. He gets the bounce. And he moves the ball. But his average speed right now is 128 KMH/79 MPH. Unless he can raise his average bowling speed to 135 KMH/84 MPH, he will be an ordinary/mediocre test bowler like Darren Sammy.
Well I've been reading the comments on here about Jason Holder ... and I still believe my first impression of him ...... he's definitely got something special to offer .....
Just hope that 'that something special' is not the same as some folks hoped of players like Dwayne Bravo
