The 2023 CG United Super 50 is over and one of the oldest sides in the competition took the title.

Make no mistake the Trinidad and Tobago Red Force were deserved winners of the tournament but it would be a lie to say there arent serious reservations about the overall quality of domestic cricket in the region.

Machel and Santokie jumped into the studio to run the rule over a competition that was down horrendous at the best of times.

By now you've probably seen the video or memes of Rahkeem Cornwall's run out in the CPL game between Saint Lucia Kings and Barbados Royals.

It's an incident that for many in the Caribbean was the last straw vis-à-vis the debate around Rahkeem and his preparedness for West Indies duty.

Machel jumped into the hot seat to look at the nuances of the Rahkeem Cornwall discourse.

After this episode was recorded Rahkeem went on to score a scintillating 100 which rather proved the point Machel was making but take the episode in all the same.
