Invest in a team with Test veterans , aggressive limited overs specialists and young talent- Brathwaite , Johnson Charles , Darren Bravo, J Holder, Chase, Rakheem Conwall, Dowrich , AJoseph, M Cummins , Shannon Gabriel , D Bishoo......Jason Holder should bat at 4, and Cornwall and Cummins brought in team . Drop Samuels , Leon and Blackwood. 3 pacers + Holder and Bishoo, Chase and Cornwall slow bowlers.

Bravo should be getting a B grade. Holder, who has a A , should be getting a C grade

If the WICB says US$100,000 is their lowest salary, I assume that's the C grade which Bravo was offered and rejected. I assume Bravo wants $150,000 and that this is the A grade.
Bravo should be getting a B grade. Holder, who has a A grade, should be getting a C grade.
To put things in perspective: a doctor's salary in the US is about $156,000 a year. A teacher's salary is about $47,000.

I disagree, your best player should get an A grade contact so I can understand Bravo's objection.
This WICB continually shootbthemselves in the foot.
If you compare their the Windian players to England, over $1m, they are not comparable but if you compare to India and Pakistan they are. Cost of living etc are quite different in the U.K compared to the windies and it may be more appropriate to compare a Doctors average salary in the Windies except they are sole traders rather than employees.
There is n way Holder should be onan A contract as you said.
