West Indies skipper Jason Holder was very critical of his batsmen’s effort after their 2-0 whitewash at the hands of India in Test series.
He said "I thought our batters weren't able to answer the call," remarked West Indies skipper Jason Holder after their loss to India in Jamaica. Only one West Indies batsman managed to score a fifty across the series. Holder's batting group earned an unenviable distinction of recording their poorest ever average (14.95) in any Test series. West Indies' winless record against India, in Tests, now stretches back to 17 years.

With a string of disappointments to put behind, Holder admitted that it won't be easy to find solutions to the problems hampering West Indies. "I don't think it's a quick fix," he said, and went on to explain: "The situation we are in in the Caribbean...we are not really spoiled for choices in terms of batsmen coming through. We've got to put things in place and to make sure we keep developing players and make sure players are doing the right things to be successful.
