About Jon Holland

Jonathan Mark Holland is a former Australian cricketer. He played as a slow left-arm orthodox bowler and a right-handed tail-end batsman. Holland was joined at Victoria by fellow spin bowler Fawad Ahmed, who gradually took over from Holland as Victoria's first choice spinner. Holland did not become a regular member of the Test team, as Nathan Lyon remained their first-choice spin bowler and both O'Keefe and Agar were ahead preferred to Holland when fit.
