Speaking of the signing of Holden, Angus Fraser, Middlesex’s Managing Director of Cricket said...
“I am delighted to have Max on board when he finishes his A-levels. Everybody at the club is very excited about his potential and this contract allows him to fully focus on his cricket when he finishes college.
“He is a smashing lad with a great work ethic and we all believe he has a bright future in the game.”
On signing with Middlesex, Holden commented...
“I am thrilled to have signed a long term contract with Middlesex, a club where I have spent the last five years of my life learning the game. The opportunity to commit my future to a club of Middlesex’s standing is a real honour for me and I look forward to contributing towards the club goals for many years to come.”
