Jayden Seales etched his name in history as the youngest West Indian to take a five-wicket haul and it was Jason Holder and Kemar Roach’s mentorship that allowed him to grow.

The 19-year-old pacer shared these sentiments yesterday during a virtual press conference where he spoke of his development since joining the West Indies senior set up to helping lead the side to victory over Pakistan in the first Test last week.

According to Seales, former captain Holder has been instrumental in his upbringing when it comes to not only bowling, but his batting which allowed him to partner Roach and give West Indies that one-wicket win.
