Player of the Match, Jason Holder, speaks after the victory: "It was a different game, obviously a day game. I thought the ball did a little bit more and held in the surface up front, making it more difficult to hit through the line. We were able to get better movement, which was key. I also thought our bowlers bowled a really tight line to them, which was essential for our execution. Credit not only to me but to Matthew [Forde] as well; I thought he bowled an outstanding spell up front to set the tone, and we were able to adjust from there."
Speaking about his death over bowling, he says: "It's something I've been practicing for a while. I'm comfortable enough in the game now to go around the wicket at times and change the angles. For me, it's about trying not to be predictable by varying my position at the crease. I'm trying to execute more yorkers, maybe on the wide line as well, and understanding when to change the angle for a particular player."
Asked what his role in the team is, Holder says: "One of my key roles is to help the guys as much as possible, especially when we're under pressure. I try to share as much information as I can. I don't know it all, but I've played enough cricket to offer some insights and suggestions. Our bowlers have been very receptive. Daren Sammy has spoken about things at length which helped our planning. It's also important to listen to the other guys and hear what they are seeing out there, rather than just telling them everything."
