West Indies head coach Daren Sammy has questioned the consistency and decision-making of TV umpire Adrian Holdstock following a series of contentious reviews during the second day of the opening Test against Australia in Barbados. After play, Sammy met with match referee Javagal Srinath to seek clarification on several umpiring decisions, particularly those involving captain Roston Chase and Shai Hope, which West Indies felt went unfairly against them. Chase was given out lbw to Pat Cummins despite what the West Indies believed to be an inside edge, while Hope’s dismissal—caught behind by a diving Alex Carey—was ruled clean despite comparisons to a similar catch on day one involving Travis Head, which was given not out. Sammy expressed concern over Holdstock’s previous officiating in England and emphasized that the team was merely seeking consistency in decision-making. He stopped short of confirming whether a formal complaint would be lodged but highlighted that the repeated issues had raised doubts within the squad. Sammy also acknowledged his team’s own failings—such as missed catches—but insisted that the accumulation of questionable decisions had added to the challenge. Australia’s Mitchell Starc echoed some of the concerns, suggesting there appeared to be inconsistencies between Snicko and visual replays in one decision involving Chase. With the Test still evenly poised and emotions running high, Sammy made it clear his aim was to ensure fairness, transparency, and trust in the officiating process moving forward.
