PowettPlay Podcast: West Indies vs Pakistan 1st ODI Review

In this episode of the PowettPlay Podcast, hosts Jordan Shannon and West Indies cricketer Kieran Powell deliver an in-depth review of the 1st ODI between West Indies and Pakistan. Jordan opens the discussion believing the West Indies were 40–50 runs short, but Kieran disagrees, pointing out the tricky batting conditions and the key role spin bowling played in the match. The duo analyse how three half-centuries from West Indies batsmen failed to convert into a match-winning total, with Kieran noting that if just one had gone on to make a big hundred, the result could have been very different. They also discuss tactical changes for the upcoming ODIs, including the possible addition of an extra spinner. Plus, the ongoing debate continues as Kieran doubles down on his view that Shai Hope should open the batting for the West Indies. With sharp insights, expert analysis, and passionate cricket debate, this is another must-listen breakdown of the West Indies vs Pakistan ODI series. #WestIndiesCricket #PakvsWI #ODI2025 #ShaiHope #CricketPodcast #KieranPowell #CaribbeanCricket #PowettPlayPodcast #ODICricket #WestIndiesvsPakistan #CricketTalk #CricketNews #CricketDiscussion #Trinidad #Cricket #CricketFans Learn more about your ad choices.
