SETTING STANDARDS is high on the agenda of new West Indies Test cricket captain Jason Holder.

“I think the first thing we need to do is set a standard in the dressing room where we don’t fall below and it is something I’ve had a lot of discussion with the coach [Phil Simmons] about,” said Holder as he fielded questions from the local media for the first time since his recent appointment to the top job.

“It is important we set this standard so guys know what we are about, where we are at the moment, what’s the benchmark and just know we can’t fall below it. I think once we know that and get players to buy into that in theory, moving forward it should be a lot easier,” Holder said.
