maniac Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) Joining in. I thought he was a bits and pieces player but what a good captain he is turning out to be. WI are still borderline minnows but this guy keeps performing with bat and ball and top of that has a calm head and a well behaved bloke who just his job without any shenanigans. I think of all the crap WICB have done over the years, they got this one right making him captain.

maniac Posted January 24, 2019 Author Share Posted January 24, 2019 He seems to be an upgrade in terms of cricketing skills over Darren Sammy who himself was one of the nicest guys to play cricket. UrmiSinhaRay and Vilander 1 1 Link to comment

I won't compare sammy the hack to holder who will end his career as very very good all rounder. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
Gollum Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) Not just a great leader but he is a valuable asset who will walk into every single team in the world (except India in SC). Batting average 31 with 2 100s and bowling average of 28 with 5 5WkHs and 1 10WkH...now that is what you expect from a test class all rounder, the Kapil standard. And I think in the last couple of years his bowling stats have improved big time. A big fan, for once WICB has made a good decision. Edited January 24, 2019 by Gollum UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Yes not comparing them in terms of cricketing skills but as a guy who held the team together and had good leadership skills amidst all adversity. Link to comment

Cricketics Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Windies winning is ideal for us. England will fall way way far from us in points table. They were expecting to gain good points out of this series to get closer to us. Great stuff from Holder UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Nikola Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Gets double hundred. Take a bow. Link to comment
Vilander Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Epic. 200 for bowler after Gillespie and Wasim. Link to comment
Gollum Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) Taking only the last 2 years into consideration, he is the most valuable test cricketer, all nations combined....batting average of 40 and bowling average 21 LINK. That's like peak Botham.....add his excellent fielding and inspirational leadership and we have a gem of a cricketer. Edited January 25, 2019 by Gollum flamy, philcric and maniac 3 Link to comment
