Speaking after his interview with Wisden, Daren Sammy admitted he had used the wrong wording and explained that Jason Holder is instead on an indefinite break from ODI cricket.
“Jason is still in the mix for Tests. I know he’s retired from ODI cricket,” Sammy had said. “He has spoken about his interest, but obviously you know he’s a franchise player as well. So, it’s us talking about ... availability, where he fits. But yeah, he’s made it clear that he's still interested in Test cricket.”
Daren Sammy rectifies his words about Jason Holder
Now Sammy has clarified that Holder has not retired from the 50-over format, and his choice of words was wrong, and the all-rounder is just on an indefinite break from ODI cricket.
“The correct position is that Jason has taken an indefinite break from ODI cricket. He has not retired from the format, and he remains very much in the mix for West Indies selection. Jason continues to be an important part of our player pool, and Cricket West Indies remains in regular dialogue with him regarding his availability across all formats of the international game.”
Jason Holder's ODI career and recent form
Holder has featured in 138 matches, scoring 2,237 runs and taking 159 wickets. He last played an ODI in July 2023 against Scotland, which was the ICC World Cup Qualifier, where Scotland stunned West Indies, winning the match by 7 wickets.
