Khalid Mohidin chats to Michael Holding who emphasised the importance of fine-tuning the basics to help players master their game in the longer format.
Opportunities like these don’t come around often.
But thanks to photographer and owner of 4 Degrees South Nikki Behrens, I was lucky enough to be granted the honour of interviewing West Indies legend Michael Holding for the first time.
He was relaxed and clam as expected, as we sat down to get things going.
What was the most remarkable takeaway from the conversation with Michael, was his smooth manner in which he delivered his points.
This was on top of his unbelievable insights and advice that he shared.
The major lesson that came out of my conversation with him is that no matter how much the game has changed because of the emphasis on the shorter formats, learning the basics is crucial to transcending one’s game.
