NZ vs WI 1st Test T20 World Cup Chat, Pollard Wildcard & a Soaked Super50 | PowettPlay Podcast

In this packed episode of the PowettPlay Podcast, hosts Jordan Shannon and Kieran Powell deliver expert insight and lively debate as they look ahead to the 1st Test between New Zealand and the West Indies. With conditions set to favour the quicks, former West Indies opener Kieran reveals his seamer-heavy XI, backed by his typically sharp and well-reasoned analysis. Meanwhile, Jordan argues that, regardless of conditions, West Indies batters must shoulder greater responsibility, build partnerships, and post competitive first-innings totals if they want to challenge the Black Caps. The conversation then shifts to the T20 World Cup, following the announcement that all West Indies group fixtures will be played in India. Kieran picks his T20 probables, before dropping a tantalising wildcard selection a potential return for Kieron Pollard. Bold? Maybe. Justified? Absolutely…and you’ll struggle to disagree with the logic. To wrap up, the lads turn their attention to the West Indies Super50 Cup, discussing the rain-hit reality of this year’s tournament and what it means for players, performances, and regional cricket development. If you’re a fan of West Indies cricket, Test match strategy, squad debates, and unfiltered cricket conversation, this episode delivers it all.
