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. 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.
After the conclusion of the 2006-07 season, Holder was stabbed just below the heart during what was described as a 'domestic dispute'. Although he was on the critical list for 48 hours, he survived the wound and returned to first-class cricket in January 2008.
