India vs West Indies 2016: 5 key player battles

Jason Holder vs Virat Kohli

The lanky West Indian captain will have a lot on his plate when his team hosts India on their home turf. One of the finest all-rounders in the longest format of the game, Holder is a thinking captain and a bowler.

More than pace, he relies on his brain to bowl intelligently and extract lateral movement off the pitch. Given the fact that Virat Kohli is expected to play long knocks throughout the series, Holder might well be the key bowler during longer sessions in the afternoon.

Kohli, on the other hand, has been on a dream run this year and will take some stopping in this series. He is expected to continue doing the good work but will have to contend with the guile of Jason Holder. The clash between the two captains is a mouth-watering prospect for this series.
