Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
As a 20 year old, he burst onto the international stage with a thunderous bang, bashing a 93-ball-124, spurring West Indies to overhaul 254 in the final of the Coca-Cola Cup against India in Singapore. He continued to be a regular in the West Indies ODI side despite the big failures dwarfing the occasional success. He was persisted with for the X-factor he brought to the table. He was tried out in two Tests too, which was a blot from the blue, considering his lack of technique and footwork. Hand-eye coordination was Powell's cup of tea.
He plied his whacky trade until stepping aside from international cricket in 2006/06. Powell then joined the U.S Tigers Cricket Club and even played for International World XI against the Pakistan All Star XI in Karachi.
Interesting facts:
1. Powell is the youngest West Indian to hit an ODI ton.
2. He is married to Caribbean TV talk show host Alicia Powell.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
There are few cleaner strikers of the ball in world cricket than Ricardo Powell, and fewer who provoke discussion on why he fails with such regularity. Powell was thrust into international cricket at the age of 20 after topping the Jamaican averages in the 1999 Busta Cup, and quickly took centre stage with an innings of 124 from 93 balls against India in Singapore. But despite this magnificent start, he was soon bought down to earth. He gained a reputation as a one-day slogger and was discarded from the Test side after one game in New Zealand in 1999-2000, and even then for a while struggled to retain a regular place in the ODI side. He has made himself a more regular member of the side of late, but his run of low scores, added to West Indies's nervous chopping and changing, led to him being discarded. He remained on the periphery, taking a break from the game in 2006-07 as he looked to life beyond cricket.
