    West Indies U19 Player Development & Building a World-Class Environment | PowettPlay Podcast

    On this episode of the PowettPlay Podcast, hosts Jordan Shannon and West Indies international Kieran Powell dive into the future of West Indies cricket, using the current ICC Under-19 World Cup as a blueprint for long-term success. The conversation starts with player identification, as Kieran explain's why the U19 World Cup has been a success for West Indies cricket. They highlight how identifying just 2–3 elite players per U19 cycle is enough to consistently refresh the senior talent pool. Attention then turns to player development, with a strong argument that these young talents must now be fast-tracked into regional first-class cricket and, just as importantly, exposed to global environments. From UK club cricket to elite overseas academies like the Chennai Super Kings setup in India. The episode also tackles coaching and talent utilisation, questioning whether the right people are currently in place to maximise player potential. A key theme throughout is time and patience. Lawes and McKenzie are identified as long-term investments, not instant solutions. Kieran reflects on what happened when Jewel Andrew was rushed into international cricket, stressing that development is a 3–4 year process. Finally, the episode explores environment and performance, using Sherfane Rutherford’s dominance in the SA20 as a case study. A must-listen episode for anyone passionate about West Indies cricket, talent pathways, player development, and the future of Caribbean cricket. #PowettPlayPodcast #WestIndiesCricket #CaribbeanCricket #U19WorldCup #WIU19 #CricketDevelopment #PlayerPathway #TalentIdentification #CricketCoaching #YouthCricket #CricketAcademy #RegionalCricket #GlobalCricket #FutureOfCricket #CricketPodcast #CricketAnalysis #CricketSelectors #SA20 #SherfaneRutherford #VitalLawes #MicahMcKenzie #JewelAndrew Learn more about your ad choices.
