Alzarri Joseph stormed off the field during the opening powerplay of the third ODI of the series between West Indies and England, seemingly fuming with the field he had been given to bowl to.
Joseph opened the bowling alongside Matthew Forde after West Indies won the toss and put England in to bat in Bridgetown, with the pair building pressure immediately. Forde found Will Jacks' outside edge with the third ball of his second over, leaving England 9-1. When Joseph came on to bowl the next over, there was a long discussion between him and West Indies captain Shai Hope, seemingly about the field Joseph would have for the next over.
After Joseph bowled his first ball, which was steered towards backward point by Jordan Cox, Joseph was visibly unhappy. He stood waving his arms at Hope and the two slips which were in place at the start of the over. After voicing his displeasure, Joseph continued the over, and delivered Cox a snorter of a delivery with his fourth ball, touching 90mph, which Cox attempted to fend off but gloved through to Hope behind the stumps.
The wicket, however, did not improve Joseph's mood. Towards the end of the over, West Indies' coach Daren Sammy was seen down on the boundary rope attempting to gesture to Joseph to calm the situation down. Once he had completed the over, Joseph stormed straight off the field and up the stairs to the West Indies dressing room.
