Between 2021 and the summer of 2022 - West Indies pioneered a brand of cricket that we at the Caribbean Cricket Podcast coined 'grindball'. It led to series wins away and home vs Bangladesh, draws at home vs Pakistan and Sri Lanka and a 1-0 series win vs England.

Machel jumped into the CCP studio to contrast grindball to what we are currently seeing in the 2025 West Indies Championship. Where are our saviours?

There are plenty of places to start when deconstructing where things went wrong in West Indies cricket but do the selectors get their portion of the blame? West Indians love to call for this person and that to be dropped but arguably too many players in WI cricket get dropped before it is even the time to do so. Machel took a look at the batting party that toured Bangladesh in January 2021 and analysed how we got to January 2025 with only Kraigg Braithwaite left. Should selectors take more of the blame - do they make too many unforced errors? As ever please leave a rating, review and subscribe to the Caribbean Cricket Podcast.

At the back end of 2024 outgoing ICC Chair Greg Barclay suggested the West Indies should into seperate islands and nations. Then news broke that new ICC chair Jay Shah and the head of CA and ECB are planning to introduce a two tier system to test cricket so they can play each other more and make more money. The implication is that West Indies would be one of those teams that would fall into a unprofitable tier two. Predictably this has caused huge outrage.
