Overview

• ICC charged Daren Sammy under Article 2.7 and docked 15% of his match fee for publicly criticising umpiring decisions
• Roston Chase highlighted Holdstock’s calls on Shai Hope’s caught-behind ruling and a Travis Head bounce as examples of unchecked errors
• Australia won the first Test by 159 runs at Kensington Oval, with Josh Hazlewood taking five wickets and Nathan Lyon finishing the West Indies innings
• Sammy pointed to similar contentious rulings by Holdstock on England tours as evidence of a long-standing pattern against the hosts
• With no formal penalty for officials, the West Indies are pressing the ICC to establish a review mechanism for third-umpire accountability before the series resumes
