West Indies skipper Jason Holder has said that his side would stage a strong comeback following their humiliating 257-run defeat to South Africa, adding that they would be at their aggressive best when they take on defending champions India on March 6.

Confident of securing a quarter-final berth, Holder said that the defeat hadn't put them on the back foot, adding that they still had two games left.

Reflecting on the upcoming tie against India, Holder said that they would be aggressive, insisting that they would play their normal style of cricket, Sport24 reported.

The all-rounder, who remained the top scorer for the team with 56, said that they have periods to improve on in terms of their 'death' bowling, adding that once they do that they would still be a force in the competition.

Currently, West Indies are fourth in Pool B table as they would meet the United Arab Emirates on 15 March after their tie against reigning champions India next week in Perth.
