Abu Dhabi, Oct 26 (CRICKETNMORE) West Indies captain Jason Holder has brushed aside suggestions that he is under "pressure" as a result of a series of losses against Pakistan on their current tour of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Holder made the remark after the West Indies conceded the three-match Test series to Pakistan, close on the heels of losing the T20 and ODI series as well, reports CMC.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pakistan beat the Caribbean side by 133 runs in the second Test to claim the Test series on Tuesday, handing them their eighth straight loss on their current tour.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"No I don't feel any pressure. It is a young and inexperienced squad and it's going to take time to get the results we are looking for," Holder told reporters at the post-match news conference on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"We have been in a position of inconsistency for the last number of years. So I don't feel any pressure. Am here to do a job. At the end of the day, I can only do the best that I possibly can."<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"We have not been on the better side of result in the recent past and it's almost a decade we have been struggling," added Holder.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"We have taken steps and try to mend some younger faces into the team. It would take time for them to come in and nourish and develop."<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Holder insisted his team is on an upward curve despite depressing results.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"We have shown signs of improvement. We stretched the last game in Dubai. We have put ourselves into a position to win it so we are seeing signs of progression it's just a matter of consistency here," he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"We have some young batsmen who have done well. We have Devendra Bishoo coming in the last game and taking eight wickets. Shannon Gabriel in this game took five wickets."<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"So, we have seen signs of individual brilliance it's just a matter of putting together that strong collective effort and seizing the crucial moments of the game to push forward into a win," he concluded.<\/p>\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2016\/10\/west-indies-skipper-jason-holder5.jpg", "alt_img": "Image for West Indies not under 'pressure' despite losses: Skipper Holder", "alt_title": "West Indies not under 'pressure' despite losses: Skipper Holder", "image1": "", "video": "", "seo_title": "West Indies not under 'pressure' despite losses: Skipper Holder", "seo_desc": "Abu Dhabi, Oct 26 (CRICKETNMORE) West Indies captain Jason Holder has brushed aside suggestions that he is under \"pressure\" as a result of a series of losses a", "seo_keywords": "Jason Holder, West Indies Cricket Team, Pakistan vs West Indies", "tag": "", "tagging": "", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "0", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": "0", "slug": "west-indies-not-under-pressure-despite-losses-skipper-holder", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "0", "ians_date": "0000-00-00", "ians_time": "00:00:00", "server_time": "0000-00-00 00:00:00", "trash": "0", "view_count": "2124", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "0", "auto_link": "0", "created": "2016-10-26 20:51:00", "updated": "2016-10-26 20:51:00", "img_from": "", "img_source": "", "schedule_publish": "0000-00-00 00:00:00", "news_keywords": null, "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "0", "google_feed": "0", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "1", "jio_date": "2016-10-26 20:51:00", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "1", "breaking_news": "0", "google_date": "2016-10-26 20:51:00", "featured": "0", "pred_match_id": null, "article_content_type": null, "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/west-indies-not-under-pressure-despite-losses-skipper-holder-20598" }
