Something tells me this could be the CPL T20 where we unearth a few Caribbean superstars! The performances from Shamar Springer and Jewel Andrew last night were refreshing and hopefully a sign of what is to come 🙏🏽 This is a huge opportunity for so many West Indians. #CPL2024

Romario Shepherd wasn’t player of the match tonight but bowled overs 5, 7 and 17 conceded 13 runs and 1 single boundary in 18 deliveries. And oh yeah, hit 4 sixes for 32(16) 😅 This is the T20 beast he can be at his full potential 🙌 #CPL2024

What separates Nicholas Pooran from the rest is the ability to dominate in a variety of conditions: 1844 T20 runs in 2024 at an average of 44 and a strike rate of 160 in the West Indies, India, South Africa, UAE, England and the USA. Take him to space next 🚀🙌 #CPL2024

It’s been refreshing to see the local batting talent in this year’s CPL T20 so far: Justin Greaves Mikyle Louis Jewel Andrew Keacy Carty Great intent shown in different high pressure situations for their respective teams. Early in the tournament but really encouraging 👏 #CPL24

Such an impressive knock from Romario Shepherd whose batting continues to evolve: Walked in at the 12th over at 75-6, watchful against the spin that has plagued them tonight and patiently waits on the pace which he destroys. 41(17) in the last 5 🔥 #CPL2024

Consecutive 100s for Justin Greaves 👏 403 runs last year and hungry for more In the 2023 Super 50, there were 57 50s and just 7 hundreds. Converting 50s into big hundreds has long been a deficiency in West Indies cricket. Greaves is an example for batters around the region.

A masterclass in 50-over batting 💯 A model of what determination and grit can produce. After 42 List A matches, Justin Greaves never scored a 100. In his last 9 innings, he’s scored 4 with 3 of them coming back to back. Unbelievable 🙌

With the amount of cricket being played, it’s quite easy to overlook 3 format players. There aren’t many in the world who are successful in all three formats. Kusal Mendis is having a year of note 🙌: 1 100 2 50s in 7 tests Averaging close to 50 in ODIs 500+ runs in 20 T20Is

The journey hasn’t been conventional for 30 year old Justin Greaves after playing the 2012 U-19 WC. He waited 10 years for a test debut but his persistence never died. His desire to occupy the crease and do whatever his team requires has been rewarded with a special test 100 👏

MAIDEN TEST 💯 FOR JUSTIN GREAVES 👏 A special knock to witness up close today. It took him a decade since making his First-Class debut to play test cricket, but he never once lost hope. A lesson to us all 🙌 Windies Cricket

The West Indies pace attack took all 18 test wickets for the first time in 2 years against Bangladesh in the first test. It felt like a piece of our cricketing legacy was brought to life again 🔥🙌

I know there’s been a lot of talk about Jofra Archer’s return to test cricket this week. Fittingly, he’s playing a red ball trial game in Barbados now and opening the bowling 🙌 youtube.com/live/dG6tJ7DhT…

Drip or drown? 👀 Shamsi and Mitch van Buuren get a thumbs up from Nikhil Uttamchandani 👍 Shaun Pollock on the other hand 🤣👎 📺 Stream #BetwaySA20 on DStv: tinyurl.com/4wrtdwtb

Jermaine Blackwood scores the first 100 of the 2025 West Indies Championship! Centuries scored in recent years (matches): 2024: 27 (25) 2023: 14 (15) 2022: 17 (15) With an improvement of pitches and cricket returning to all territories, can we get at least 35 in 28 matches?

Very excited to rekindle my YouTube channel ahead of #IPL2025. I decided to start with something fun! Trying to pick the best XI in this year’s IPL that could compete in all conditions around 🇮🇳. Weigh in and let me know who I missed 👀 youtu.be/omxu5j-n3vs?si…

With the IPL on, I used the time to map out a potential roadmap the West Indies can take to win the next T20 World Cup in 2026. Let me know your thoughts on their chances! youtu.be/xtvC5gH499o?si…

Another T20 💯 for Klaasen All 3 have come when he has batted before the 8th over. It baffles me that teams have been so reluctant to have him up the order over the years. The results of Pooran are similar. Will we start seeing the best players batting in pos. 1-3? #IPL25

It has been so enjoyable to see the crowds present at these first 2 test matches in the West Indies. To hear the loud screams and horns after a wicket and to see how invested the fans have been has added to the theatre on the field 👏
