NOTTINGHAM, England: West Indies skipper Jason Holder refused to get swept away by talk of records and breaking through the 500-run mark as his side prepared for Friday's World Cup clash with Pakistan at Trent Bridge.

Holder has said he wants his eighth-ranked team to fly under the radar in England and he was not about to add to any hype when asked on Thursday whether his big-hitters were ready to make a statement."I think where the game has gone now, especially in England, there have been some high totals but there have been totals where I saw one or two games lately that were relatively low scoring. It can happen," he added.

"I think he's worked out pretty much his method of scoring in this format," he said of the 25-year-old Barbadian.
