The PowettPlay Podcast begins on a sombre note as hosts Jordan Shannon and West Indies international Kieran Powell pay tribute to the legendary Sir Garfield Sobers following his passing. Jordan and Kieran reflect on the extraordinary life, career and lasting legacy of one of cricket's greatest-ever all-rounders, whose influence extended far beyond Barbados and West Indies cricket. The conversation then turns to the West Indies' disappointing performances during the 4th ODI against New Zealand. The hosts deliver an honest assessment of the batting unit, examining repeated collapses, a lack of aggression and the failure to adapt effectively to challenging conditions. They discuss whether the team's cautious approach has placed too much pressure on individual batters and question the overall clarity of the West Indies' ODI strategy. Despite the wider struggles, Jordan and Kieran highlight the valuable contributions of Gudakesh Motie and assess the performances of several players across the series. They also debate the tactical use of the bowling attack, including the timing of bowling changes, the management of key bowlers and whether the West Indies made the best use of the options available to them. The quality of the pitches also comes under scrutiny, with the hosts considering whether the surfaces have encouraged competitive ODI cricket or made positive, attacking batting unnecessarily difficult. Attention then shifts towards the crucial ICC Cricket World Cup qualification pathway and the upcoming qualifiers in Zimbabwe. With the qualification process becoming increasingly difficult, Jordan and Kieran discuss the pressure facing the West Indies, the importance of finding a settled combination and why the team cannot afford to enter another major qualifying tournament without a clear and consistent plan.

Simon Mann is joined by Sir Alastair Cook, the BBC chief commentator Jonathan Agnew and former India wicket-keeper Deep Dasgupta to look back at England's ODI series win over India. We hear from captains Harry Brook and Shubman Gill as well as Ben Duckett who made the highest men's ODI individual score at the Home of Cricket in striking 141 off 135 balls as England won by 27 runs.And during the interval at Lord's, Jonathan spoke with both Sir Clive Lloyd and Brian Lara as the pair paid tribute to the great Sir Garfield Sobers who passed away at the age of 89.
In this episode of the show, Binksy, Raj and Stu talk mostly ODI cricket for the first time in ages, as we look back at the first two matches in England's series against India and the first three of New Zealand's tour to the West Indies. We also pay tribute to the late Sir Garfield Sobers - a true legend of the game. We start the show with England v India, and it's Rohit Sharma who has been under the most scrutiny so far. Is it time India pull stumps on his international career? For England, it seems clear the talent is there to build a formidable white-ball side, but have they got the tactics right? And is Harry Brook determined to self-destruct in every innings? We also discuss whether ODI openers should consider a T20 approach, and continue to speculate on the vacant England test coaching job now that Andy Flower has withdrawn from the race. As the show continues, the conversation moves to the West Indies, where at the time of recording New Zealand held a 2-1 lead in the five-match ODI series. After bat dominated the first game, it's been the Black Caps spinners who have delivered the decisive moments. We talk about where Michael Bracewell and Jayden Lennox fit on New Zealand's depth chart, and there's also praise for Tom Latham and his performances in the middle order of this ODI side. To round out the show, we pay tribute to Sir Garfield Sobers, who passed away this week just short of his 90th birthday. One of the true greats of the game - perhaps the greatest there ever has been - and a player who excelled across so many skills, it's fair to assume he'd have been a superstar in any era.

The PowettPlay Podcast returns as hosts Jordan Shannon and West Indies international Kieran Powell break down another dramatic chapter in the West Indies vs New Zealand ODI series, analysing the key talking points following the matches in Guyana and looking ahead to the decisive challenges awaiting in Barbados. A major focus of this episode is the controversial pitch conditions in Guyana, with Jordan and Kieran discussing whether the surfaces resembled "dust bowls" that excessively favoured spin bowling and made positive, attacking cricket almost impossible. The pair debate whether the wickets produced a fair contest between bat and ball and what these conditions mean for the development of Caribbean cricket. The conversation also examines the West Indies batting collapse, highlighting the technical issues that contributed to another disappointing performance. Jordan and Kieran assess the struggles against quality spin bowling, the lack of adaptability shown by the batting unit, and how New Zealand's disciplined bowling attack capitalised on every opportunity to take control of the series. Looking ahead to the upcoming ODI in Barbados, the hosts discuss potential West Indies team selection, debating whether changes should be made to the playing XI. They explore the value of introducing greater experience into the pace attack, the importance of balancing youth with proven performers, and how the team can respond after falling behind in the series. The episode also shines a spotlight on the emergence of teenage spinner Vitel Lawes, whose performances continue to excite Caribbean cricket fans. While praising his composure, talent and match-winning potential, Jordan and Kieran stress the importance of carefully managing his development, ensuring that one of the region's brightest young prospects is given the time and support needed to flourish at international level. If you're passionate about West Indies cricket, ODI cricket, New Zealand cricket, player development, team selection, pitch conditions and in-depth cricket analysis, this episode delivers expert insight, honest opinion and thoughtful discussion from two voices deeply invested in the future of Caribbean cricket.

In this episode of the show, Baldy, Jamie and Stu turn a 'short' episode into a long one by reacting to the news that Brendon McCullum has been sacked as England Men's test coach, and then looking back at the Stokes/McCullum tenure. We also discuss England's T20 series victory against India and New Zealand's ongoing ODI series against the West Indies. We start the show with an extended conversation about Brendon McCullum's sacking as England Men's test coach. We talk the timing of the announcement, the reaction so far and the personal side of difficult conversations. We ask whether he'll see out the rest of his white-ball contract, wonder about who might replace him, and look back at the Stokes/McCullum era to consider how that time will be remembered and what, if anything, should be carried forward by their successors. As the show continues, the conversation eventually does turn to recent cricket matches to discuss England's 4-0 T20 series win against India. We saw a return to form for Jos Buttler, some remarkable hitting from Harry Brook and a continuation of Jofra Archer's impressive summer. For India, is it time to panic? Probably not, but the absences of the likes of Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya and Varun Chakravarthy certainly left holes that couldn't be filled. And what to do now with Vaibhav Sooryavanshi? To round out the show, there's an overview of the first two ODIs between the Black Caps and the West Indies. New Zealand are much changed from the tests against England, but after an initial loss, it was a group of spinners led by Jayden Lennox who helped them level the series. We also share a few quick thoughts on the first round of New Zealand domestic contracts, and highlight some players we'll be keeping our eye on during the home summer. We'll be back again next week with more news and views.

Nádherný historický príbeh odohrávajúci sa v 16. storočí o pozoruhodnej a odvážnej žene – kartografke, inšpirovaný skutočnými udalosťami. A tiež príbeh ženy zo súčasnosti, ktorá zo zatajeným dychom objavuje tento dávno stratený svet máp, v ktorom sa zrkadlia aj tie ľudské. Robyn sa zrútil svet, keď jej milovaný manžel Nate pred siedmimi rokmi zmizol v morských vlnách. Odišla z rušného Londýna do pokojného rodného mestečka Hay-on-Wye, kde jej otec vlastní malý obchodík s knihami a mapami. Robyn v ňom objaví záhadnú, nevšedne detailnú mapu. Rozhodne sa preskúmať jej pôvod a tiež tajomný príbeh, ktorý ju obklopuje. Netuší však, že mapa jej – tak, ako to už mapy robievajú – ukáže správnu cestu. Protestantka Freida pochádza z významnej holandskej kartografickej rodiny. Ako dieťa zažila peklo, ktoré v 16. storočí rozpútala nenávisť medzi katolíkmi a protestantmi. Aby sa zachránila, utiekla z Holandska do Londýna, a tu sa pokúša žiť nový život a uplatniť svoje zručnosti v gravírovaní máp. Chýr o nej sa čoskoro donesie až ku kráľovnej Alžbete, ktorá ju požiada, aby pre slávneho moreplavca Francisa Drakea vytvorila tú najdetailnejšiu mapu, akú kedy svet videl. Freida sa tak ocitá na kráľovskom dvore, kde si znepriatelí španielskeho vyslanca. Spustí sa tak kolotoč nebezpečných dobrodružstiev, ktoré opäť ohrozujú celú Freidinu rodinu.

Jordan Shannon and West Indies international Kieran Powell break down the West Indies' disappointing defeat to New Zealand in the 2nd One-Day International in Guyana, analysing where the match slipped away and what must change ahead of the remainder of the ODI series. The discussion centres on the West Indies batting collapse, with Jordan and Kieran examining why the batting unit struggled to adapt to a slow, low-bouncing surface that increasingly favoured spin bowling. They explore the importance of game awareness, shot selection, strike rotation and reading conditions, questioning whether the team showed the tactical discipline needed to succeed on a challenging wicket. Attention also turns to possible squad changes before the series heads to Barbados. The hosts debate whether Shimron Hetmyer should return to the starting XI, how his aggressive middle-order presence could reshape the batting line-up, and the significant balance lost through the absence of injured all-rounders, particularly Roston Chase. They assess how those missing players influence both team composition and tactical flexibility. Looking ahead to the remaining matches, Jordan and Kieran discuss the influence of external factors including the toss, evening dew and changing pitch conditions, explaining how these variables could prove decisive in determining the outcome of the series. They also identify the tactical adjustments West Indies must make if they are to respond positively against a strong New Zealand side. Despite a frustrating performance, the hosts remain optimistic that the West Indies have the quality to secure the ODI series, provided they learn quickly from their mistakes and adapt their approach before the action moves to Barbados.

The PowettPlay Podcast returns as hosts Jordan Shannon and Kieran Powell are joined once again by Roger Tracey from Massive Hitz Cricket to analyse a historic moment for West Indies cricket following their first home Test series victory over Sri Lanka in more than two decades. The panel breaks down the key performances that shaped the 2nd Test, celebrating the impressive batting displays from Justin Greaves and Shai Hope, whose consistency continues to be a major driving force for the West Indies. A major talking point centres around Hope's role behind the stumps, with Jordan, Kieran and Roger debating whether asking one of the world's premier batters to keep wicket could ultimately affect his longevity, workload and ability to produce match-winning performances with the bat. The discussion also examines the discipline and control shown by the West Indies bowling attack throughout the series before turning attention to the upcoming ODI series against New Zealand. The hosts share their thoughts on the exciting inclusion of highly-rated young spinner Vitel Lawes and what his selection could mean for the future of West Indies cricket. Finally, the conversation explores the wider development of the game across the Caribbean, questioning why legendary figures such as Curtly Ambrose are not more actively involved within the regional coaching structure and discussing how greater access to former greats could benefit the next generation of West Indies players. #WestIndies #Windies #WestIndiesCricket #Cricket #CricketPodcast #ShaiHope #JustinGreaves #VitelLawes #CurtlyAmbrose #NewZealandCricket #SriLankaCricket #ODICricket #TestCricket #CaribbeanCricket #PowettPlayPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode #567: Stella Naw, a Kachin academic activist focused on indigenous and decolonial peacebuilding, is joined by Dustin Barter, a senior research fellow at the Humanitarian Policy Group at ODI, and together they argue that in the turmoil since the 2021 coup, ethnic resistance organizations (EROs) and their civil society partners are reshaping governance and legitimacy from the ground up, even as international recognition and aid decline. Stella traces the problem to Myanmar's founding. Before 1948, indigenous communities governed themselves. The creation of the Union imposed internal and external borders that divided communities and ignored longstanding political realities. After the military consolidated power in the 1960s, governance became increasingly centralized, and divide-and-conquer tactics deepened ethnic and religious fragmentation. In response to state neglect, EROs began to build parallel systems—schools, clinics, land administration, and local dispute resolution—in areas beyond effective central control. During the 2010s political opening, international engagement centered on Naypyidaw and Yangon. The Nationwide Ceasefire Agreement (NCA), a centralized peace framework between the military and selected ethnic armed organizations, drew major donor funding and pressure on non-signatories. While it introduced some reforms, Stella and Dustin argue it ultimately reinforcedcentralization and sidelined federal visions emerging from border regions. After the coup, urban protest evolved into nationwide armed resistance aligned with longstanding EROs. As junta control contracted, regional authorities expanded governance. In Kachin and Karenni, resistance-linked institutions collaborate with civil society and religious networks, emphasizing accountability. Stella challenges international definitions of legitimacy, arguing it should derive from sustained relationships between governing actors and communities. Though some fear decentralization may marginalize minorities within minority regions, Dustin maintains that complexity requires inclusive negotiation, not disengagement. With humanitarian funding shrinking, he calls for cross-border aid and sustained diplomatic pressure. As he concludes, “The best pathway forward… is for the revolution to succeed.”
In this episode of the show, Binksy, Jamie, Baldy and Stu look back at the Black Caps v England series in an attempt to figure out where to next for both sides. There's also a quick word on the Women's T20 World Cup final, and a nod to some upcoming white-ball series also featuring India and the West Indies. We start the show with plenty of positivity from the New Zealand side of the ledger again as the Black Caps series victory remains at the forefront of our memories. There's a heap of praise on the bowling group and Nathan Smith in particular, along with questions about whether the batting lineup still contains a few areas of concern. Daryl Mitchell's gritty hundred is singled out as a sign of NZ's situational awareness, and we dare to dream about whether this group can go to Australia and win having now ticked off India and England in recent times. As we turn to England, the questions mount up in the wake of Ben Stokes's retirement, and 'Who's next?' is right up there on the list. We discuss the good and the frustrating about the Stokes/McCullum era, what England could take forward with them into the next one and whether Harry Brook is the right person to lead that group. We also speculate about who might replace Stokes at 7, and who might take over as coach if Brendon McCullum is moved on from the test role. After a long discussion, we round out the show with a conversation about the Women's T20 World Cup. We say thanks and farewell to three White Ferns legends in Sophie Devine, Suzie Bates and Lea Tahuhu, then look ahead to the final between England and Australia that will play out not long after our recording. There's also a brief mention of Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's international debut at the remarkable age of 15 years 99 days, but no doubt there will be longer discussions on his career in the weeks and months ahead.

fWotD Episode 3346: Marcus Trescothick Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 3 July 2026, is Marcus Trescothick.Marcus Edward Trescothick (born 25 December 1975) is an English former cricketer who played first-class cricket for Somerset County Cricket Club, and represented England in 76 Test matches and 123 One Day Internationals. He was Somerset captain from 2010 to 2016 and temporary England captain for several Tests and ODIs. Since retirement he has commentated and coached at both county and international level.A left-handed opening batsman, he made his first-class debut for Somerset in 1993 and quickly established himself as a regular member of the team. Trescothick made his One Day International (ODI) debut seven years later, against Zimbabwe in July 2000. His Test debut, against the West Indies, followed in August. Although former England captain Nasser Hussain likened Trescothick's build and batting temperament to that of Graham Gooch, his stroke play is more reminiscent of David Gower.An aggressive opener, he once held the record for the most ODI centuries of any English player, and for the fastest half-century in English Twenty20 cricket. Trescothick is also an accomplished slip fielder and occasional right-handed medium pace bowler who has kept wicket for England in five ODIs, and deputised as England captain for two Test matches and ten ODIs.Trescothick was an automatic choice for England between 2000 and 2006, before a stress-related illness threatened his career and forced him to pull out of the national squad. He began rebuilding his career with Somerset in 2007 and scored two double-centuries that season. However, he remained uneasy about returning to international cricket, and announced his retirement from internationals in March 2008, opting to continue playing at county level for Somerset. Media speculation continued as to a possible international return; Trescothick repeatedly voiced his intent to remain in retirement, and has suffered recurrences of his condition in both 2008 and 2009 when Somerset toured abroad. He nevertheless continued to play for Somerset while also working as a commentator and analyst for Sky Sports in the off-season. He finally retired in 2019 holding several Somerset batting records. He is currently the lead batting coach for the England Test team.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:49 UTC on Friday, 3 July 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Marcus Trescothick on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Danielle.

Bangladesh created history by securing their first-ever ODI series victory over Australia, winning the recent three-match contest 2-1. The reigning world champions found themselves on the wrong side of the record books and have now lost four of their last five ODI series. Nikesh Rughani, Jim Maxwell and Sunil Gupta discuss if Australia can fix their problems ahead next year's Cricket World Cup.The influence of the new ownership groups in the Hundred is already being felt, with team rebrands as the competition heads into its sixth season. We hear from MI London's' Nathan Sowter, who has become a short-format specialist, about how the tournament is evolving and what fans can expect this year.Plus, It was a memorable weekend in the England's Dorset League as former Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara turned out for his local club and smashed a match winning 168 from just 117 balls. We speak to one of his teammates, who tells Stumped he was “coaching” the legendary left-hander through the innings.Photo: Bangladesh's players celebrate after the dismissal of Australia's Marnus Labuschagne during the first one-day international (ODI) cricket match between Bangladesh and Australia at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka.

Menners is back from his US tour and digs straight into the chaos engulfing England's cricket team after Ben Stokes and Gus Atkinson broke a team curfew following the first Test win over New Zealand, costing them their spots for the second Test (with Joe Root stepping in as captain) and putting Stokes's leadership under serious pressure. From there it's a tour of Australian cricket news: Cooper Connolly's breakout ODI century against Bangladesh, debut performances from Joel Davies and Nikhil Chowdhury, a strong start for the Australian women's team at the T20 World Cup, and a deep dive into the messy, stalled privatisation of the Big Bash League, including Cricket Victoria's botched (and reversed) axing of the Stars and Renegades. He wraps up with two "can't let it go" moments: RCB's IPL title and Kane Williamson's retirement from international cricket.

Creativity through the lens of a musician and songwriter"Being creative is so lucky"Robin Batteau's“Banned in Sparta” is a new collaborative album of songs based on poems by Classical Greek poets and recorded by a number of friends: Tom Paxton, Eric Andersen, Livingston and Kate Taylor, Matt Nakoa, Robin Lane, 2-time Tony winning actor James Naughton and his gifted children Keira and Greg, plus Carolyn Hester. Robin was inspired by an Ancient Greek History class he took when he returned to Harvard during the Pandemic to finish a degree he started in the 1960s. Robin earned the World Record of taking a 50-year break (between 1970 to 2021) to return to Harvard and finish his degree in 2022. “Banned In Sparta” focuses almost entirely on poets from Ancient Greece between 700 and 400 BC. One poet, Gaius Valerius Catullus (84 – 54 BC), as smitten with the ghost of Sappho as Robin or Alcaeus, is from Rome during Julius Caesar's reign, for whom Eric Andersen performs “Cross (of Gold),” an ode to interlaced and conflicted feelings, “Odi et Amo"— I hate and I love.The title “Banned in Sparta” finds its name from Archilochus, the Bob Dylan of the 7th century B.C., a warrior-poet so irreverent he was “Banned in Sparta.” James Naughton sings the song “Archilochus Re-Deemed (I Am a Servant of the Lord God of War).” Kate Taylor performs “Telesilla's On the Wall,” from the female poet Telesilla, who led her fellow women warriors to victory against those same renowned Spartans. “The Greek Lyric poets performed live, and were the stars of their day,” says Robin. “They were singer/songwriters, they played the lyre (hence "Lyric") and danced around the stage like Tom Paxton and Taylor Swift.”Robin, who studied Ancient Greece and Integrative Biology at Harvard, found that most of what was left of the poems were fragments and myth, “So I mosaic-ed songs to reflect their expressions and intentions— who they were, and are to me.” A range of female poets contributed to the lyrical history of Greece including Corrina, whose “In Her Loving Arms” is sung by Carolyn Hester, and Praxilla's “The Most Beautiful Thing in the World,” a hymn to Adonis, sung by Keira Naughton. Sappho's writing inspires “Terra Cotta Heart,” sung by Robin Lane. Livingston Taylor sings “My Sappho, Sweetly Smiling” from the smitten neighbor and rival Alcaeus. The fun and frolicking “Shake your Hair (You Thracian Filly),” sung by Tom Paxton. Pianist and folk singer Matt Nakoa offers a Bruce Hornsby-like treatment for Simonides of Ceos's “Theatre of Memory (Man of Gold).” Sharing Grammy, Emmy, Clio, and Gold Record Awards and an Oscar nomination, Robin's recorded over a dozen albums with Pierce Arrow, David Buskin (Buskin & Batteau), and many others. His jingles feature in long-running, award-sweeping advertising campaigns from "I'm Lovin' It" for McDonalds to “Can't Beat It” for Coca-Cola to "The Heartbeat of America" for Chevrolet. He's played his 1898 Scarampella violin with everyone from Yo-Yo Ma to Benny Goodman to Bruce Springsteen and has had his melodies sung by Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Judy Collins, Paul Newman, and more. His songs have supported charities and causes, including World Hunger Year, Ocean Alliance, Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign, and Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Gang Camp for kids. The Boston Globe defines his music with David Buskin as "Acoustic Heaven."https://robinbatteau.com/https://www.facebook.com/robin.batteauSend us Fan Mail

VYPLŇTE NÁŠ PODCASTOVÝ PRIESKUM: http://www.zabavavpodcastoch.sk/prieskum Odišli hľadať šťastie a lepší život na opačný koniec sveta. Azda takto by sme mohli zhrnúť základný motív českých a slovenských emigrantov v ďalekej Austrálii, ktorý stál za ich rozhodnutím opustiť svoju domovskú krajinu. Bolo by však až príliš veľkým zjednodušením, ak by sme zostali len pri tomto konštatovaní. Rodné Československo totiž často opúšťali nedobrovoľne, neodchádzali len za lepším životom, ale aj za slobodou a perspektívou, že už viac nebudú musieť čeliť politickým perzekúciám. To je naopak motív vlastný Čechom a Slovákom, ktorí zo svojej vlasti utekali po roku 1948 či po roku 1968. Mnohí z nich svoje miesto a novú životnú perspektívu napokon našli práve v Austrálii. Dejinám československej emigrácii sa dnes už venujú viacerí historici a je predmetom odborného spracovania. Ľudský rozmer tejto kapitoly našich dejín sa však rozhodla zmapovať publicistka Soňa Gyarfašová vo svojom dokumentačnom cykle Po stopách pamäti: Príbehy z opačného konca sveta. Mnohí z týchto emigrantov totiž ešte žijú a môžu nám porozprávať svoj vlastný príbeh. Cesta za týmto rozprávaním zaviedla dnešnú hostku podcastu Dejiny práve do krajiny našich protinožcov. Ako sama hovorí, splnila si tým svoj cestovateľský sen, ale i svoju dokumentačnú ambíciu. So Soňou Gyarfašovou sa preto rozprávame o tejto jej ceste, ale predovšetkým o ceste a životnom osude ľudí, ktorí ani v ďalekej Austrálii nezabudli na svoju vlasť.
