Right now the WI Test and ODI captain, Jason Holder is one of the best all-rounders in the world. He was quickly drafted into the WI side, as the team was going through a turmoil and made his ODI debut in 2013 against AUS. His bowling prowess was on show when he took a 4 wicket haul against Pakistan. Soon after that Holder was given the Test cap against NZ, and he finished the match with figures of 2/50 and 90 runs in the bucket.

Currently, he is the best all-rounder in the ICC Test rankings, as till now, he has 3 centuries and 93 scalps to his name in red-ball cricket. In 2013 auction CSK were filling up their squad with bowlers, and at last, they bagged the rookie Windies bowler Jason Holder. After spending a couple of games in the dugout Holder was given the chance to don yellow jersey against Rajasthan Royals where he finished with figures of 0/30.

MSD backed him as he was hitting good lengths and coupled it with economical spells. In their return tie against RR, Holder bowled a crucial spell of 2/20. He played 6 games under MSD’s leadership and may have learned few tricks of the trade from the master in his short stint.
