However, skipper Holder notched up a spectacular innings, backed by a crucial half-century from Navin Bidaisee. But Holder’s dismissal in the 15th over off the opponent captain David Wiese’s delivery turned the match’s fate towards the defending champions. Eventually, the Saint Lucia Kings won the clash by a mere margin of just three runs.
