In this episode of the PowettPlay Podcast, hosts Jordan Shannon and West Indies cricketer Kieran Powell dive deep into the latest Cricket West Indies quarterly meeting. Kieran jokingly questions if the meeting was simply a meeting for meeting’s sake, while Jordan raises concerns about the lack of clear solutions for the region’s ongoing financial challenges.The big talking point? The controversial decision to remove Combined Campuses & Colleges and the West Indies Academy from the regional tournaments – a move the PowettPlay Podcast highlighted last week. Jordan argues this change reduces opportunities, weakens competition, and ultimately does little to raise the standard of West Indies cricket.From finances to future strategy, the meeting sparks plenty of debate, but the conversation quickly shifts to on-field matters as the hosts analyse Day 1 of the India vs West Indies Test match, where the West Indies were bowled out for just 162 runs and find themselves under immense pressure. Can they fight back, or has the game already slipped away?Tune in for sharp analysis, honest opinions, and plenty of laughs as Jordan and Kieran break down the politics and performances shaping West Indies cricket today.#PowettPlayPodcast #WestIndiesCricket #CricketWestIndies #CWI #INDvsWI #WIvIND #TestCricket #CricketPodcast #RegionalCricket #CaribbeanCricket #CricketAnalysis #Cricket #CricketTalk #CricketAnalysis #KieranPowell #westIndiesAcademy Learn more about your ad choices.
