This podcast is part of the Sports Social Podcast Network.
This is Kimo Oroch and I listen to the Caribbean Cricket Podcast. Yes, yes, yes. Welcome back to another edition of the Caribbean Cricket Podcast. I'm on half the Caribbean Cricket Podcast, Mashal St.
Why is it important to celebrate West Indies cricket victories?
Patrick Hewitt. This is a quick video just looking at the ODI, the recently completed ODI series between West Indies and Pakistan. West Indies obviously winning 2-1 and sealing yet another home ODI series victory. I'm possibly, in this episode, going to challenge the thinking of a few people. And here's the first challenge.
How does the West Indies team perform in ODI rankings?
The first challenge is, can you say anything... Sorry, not anything. Can you just be positive about West Indies cricket... without having to make equivocations, without having to say, but this, is it possible after a series win for someone in the media, a fan, whatever your kind of connection and link to West Indies cricket is, is it possible to just be positive in and of itself? And the reason why I ask you this is as follows. West Indies just won an ODI series 2-1 against Pakistan.
What challenges does the West Indies team face moving forward?
If you are somebody who pays any kind of notice to international rankings, if that matters to you, it doesn't necessarily matter to me, but if you are somebody who does, there is no way you can make an equivocation in this series and say... But Pakistan only bought a B team. You know how people like to do that. But Pakistan only bought a B team. No, they didn't.
Who were the standout players in the ODI series against Pakistan?
They bought their full strength squad. But Pakistan are a low ranked team. No, they're not. They're ranked fourth. Whether you trust the rankings or not, they're ranked fourth.
What improvements are needed for the West Indies ODI team?
If you are one of those people who make coin of shouting about West Indies cricket and hating on individuals within West Indies cricket and painting yourself as the number one provider of content around West Indies cricket, here's a challenge. Can you just be positive? Is it possible to do a show and just say, well done? No buts. No, but, no, I want to see this and I want to see that.
How does the West Indies team compare to other international teams?
Just well done. And the reason why I'm focusing like that, and you don't have to, like I say, I always say to people, you don't have to agree with me. But the reason why I'm starting and doing the episode along these lines is, we as West Indian fans, as a West Indian fan base, as West Indian journalists, as West Indian media outlets, we do not have the luxury of expecting victories in any format. of the sport, not T20s, not ODIs, not Tess, not men's, not women's, not young youths, not young gal, right? We do not have the privilege of expecting victory in any series.
What are the future prospects for West Indies cricket?
And based on that, any victory is to be celebrated. Even if it's a victory in a series loss, it's to be celebrated, much less a series win. Well done. Well done, Shay. Well done, Darren Sammy. Well done, Ravi Rampal. Well done, Rayon Griffith. Well done, Floyd Reefer. Well done, Jaden Seals. I know I'm missing people as I try and do this now. Well done, Avanesh. Well done... Brandon King didn't even score any runs. Well done, Brandon King. Well done, Evan Lewis. Well done, Shafane Rutherford. Well done, Gudakesh Moti. Well done, Casey Carty. Well done, number 70. Well done, who am I missing? Roston Chase. Well done, Judea Blades. Well done, I've undoubtedly missed some. Romario Shepard. You lot have been catching stinkers and pelters for pretty much the whole summer.
And you've ended off this summer series with an ODI series win against a team that didn't bring a B-side and that are supposed to be better than you on paper. Well done. If you turned on and clicked on this episode expecting me to do some overreaction and some funny kind of takes on stuff, no. This ain't the episode for that. This is just an episode to say the boys did well. And with no equivocations, we praise them. Even the ones who didn't even contribute too tough. As a squad, they achieved the goal. If the goal in every series that West Indies goes into is to win the series, then they achieve their goal. And we can't criticise. They achieve their goal. If we accept that, let's take the English Premier League, because lots of you are probably football fans.
