The Final Word Cricket Podcast The Final Word with Keaton Jennings
Season 17, Episode 35: Welcome to episode three in our series of interviews with county cricketers at the top of their games. It’s opening day today with Lancashire visiting Lord’s. After being relegated at the end of 2024, the job for the men representing the Red Rose is obvious – to bounce straight back up. And when it comes to posting their runs over the next six months, it’ll be their skipper who sets the tone. Keaton Jennings has enjoyed a great run over the last five seasons at the top of the list. At age 32, he’s now deep into a career that has taken him from captaining the South African Under 19s to making a Test ton on debut for England. It’s been a while since his last international cap, but he’s never been far from the thoughts of selectors given he’s shown that he can cut it with the best. In this interview, he provides great insight to what it’s like trying to master the mental side of the game and how that’s liberated him to play his best cricket in recent years. Intelligent and self-aware, he’s another outstanding guest.
