West Indies cherishing Test return after coronavirus, says Jason Holder

The Hindu  

West Indies captain Jason Holder says his team should cherish the opportunity to play Test cricket in a series that could have been cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic. “I see so many leagues in jeopardy and the World T20 as well -- so the mere fact we are getting an opportunity to play cricket I think we should cherish that,” Holder told reporters. West Indies' squad has to spend three weeks at Old Trafford before heading to Southampton and with its movement restricted to the ground and hotel they face a challenge to avoid boredom. West Indies hold the Wisden Trophy after beating England 2-1 in a three-test series in the Caribbean last year but Holder is not reading too much into that win.
