Alcindo Holder

Alcindo Holder (born 24 September 1982) in Bridgetown. He is a West Indies cricketer who played in the 2002 U-19 Cricket World Cup in New Zealand. A right-handed batsman and right-arm off break bowler, Holder made his debut for Barbados in 200506.

Career

After representing the West Indies in the 2002 Under-19 World Cup, Holder suffered a long wait before making his debut for Barbados, eventually coming in the KFC Cup one-day match against Guyana in October 2005, a match in which Holder scored 2 sixes during his innings of 24.[1] He enjoyed a successful start, finishing his first season with a batting average in excess of 40, although it dropped significantly during his second year.[2]

After the conclusion of the 200607 season, Holder was stabbed just below the heart during what was described as a 'domestic dispute'.[3] Although he was on the critical list for 48 hours, he survived the wound and returned to first-class cricket in January 2008.
