West Indies were once lost but now we’ve found…the batting lineup that works | PowettPlay Podcast

The PowettPlay Podcast is back with hosts Jordan Shannon and West Indies international Kieran Powell breaking down the first two T20 internationals between West Indies and South Africa, with plenty of insight, honesty, and real cricket talk. Kieran is encouraged by what he’s seen from the West Indies batting, believing the team may have finally stumbled across their strongest T20 batting order. With players putting their hands up, the promising batting performance in the second T20 becomes a major talking point, offering genuine optimism ahead of future white-ball challenges. Jordan turns the focus to the West Indies bowling attack, questioning whether it’s lacking bite. However, Kieran provides important context, reminding listeners that conditions in India will be vastly different to South Africa, where West Indies are likely to deploy three spinners, adding both control and depth to the attack. The episode then takes a serious turn as Jordan asks Kieran for his reaction to the shocking news surrounding Aaron Jones, who has been charged with breaching Cricket West Indies (CWI) and ICC anti-corruption codes. Kieran speaks candidly about the surprise of the situation and the dark side of the game, offering rare perspective on corruption in international cricket. A must-listen episode covering West Indies cricket, T20 analysis, team selection, spin bowling strategy, and cricket anti-corruption — only on the PowettPlay Podcast. 🎙️🏏 #PowettPlayPodcast #CricketPodcast #CricketTalk #CricketAnalysis #T20WorldCup #T20WorldCup2026 #ICCWorldCup #T20Cricket #WestIndiesCricket #Windies #WindiesCricket #CricketWestIndies #ShaiHope #WestIndiesSquad #SquadSelection #CricketDebate #KieranPowell #CricketInsight #CricketSouthAfrica #SAvWI #AaronJones #Corruption #ICC #Hetmyer Learn more about your ad choices.
