Get ready for a fiery, passionate deep-dive into The Ashes 2025/2026 as Jordan Shannon and West Indies star Kieran Powell return on the PowettPlay Podcast to dissect a dramatic start to the series. After England went from a commanding position in the 1st Test in Perth to a crushing defeat, Jordan arrives deflated, frustrated, and searching for answers - while Kieran reminds him (not too gently) that he did predict this exact collapse.
The hosts break down Travis Head’s unbelievable century, analysing how his game-changing knock flipped the momentum of not just the Test, but potentially the entire Ashes series. They discuss England’s tactical missteps, Australia’s ruthless response, and how such a shift might influence the remaining battles in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, and beyond.
Looking ahead, Jordan fights to stay optimistic about England’s chances of turning the Ashes around, highlighting what Brendon McCullum, Ben Stokes, and the squad must do to regain control. Meanwhile, Kieran isn’t holding much hope offering a blunt, unfiltered assessment of where England stand and why Australia may already have one hand on the urn.
Whether you're an England die-hard, an Australia fan enjoying the chaos, or a cricket lover seeking sharp analysis, emotional honesty, and world-class insight, this episode delivers everything you need to stay plugged in.
