A bizarre incident unfolded during the third ODI between West Indies and England at Kensington Oval, Barbados, when West Indies pacer Alzarri Joseph unexpectedly left the field mid-match after a disagreement with captain Shai Hope. The incident occurred early in the innings after Joseph bowled his second over, despite taking a wicket in it.
The disagreement began after the first delivery of Joseph's over, when he and Hope had an extended discussion about field placement. England were at 10/1, and Joseph appeared frustrated with the field setup, specifically pointing toward the slips in visible frustration.
