Watch: Jayden Seales Gives Fiery Send-Off to Australia Skipper Pat Cummins, ICC May Take Action
West Indies fast bowler Jayden Seales may face a fine from the ICC for his actions on Day 1 of the first Test against Australia. Seales put in an impressive performance, taking five wickets as Australia were bowled out for just 180 their lowest total against the West Indies in three decades. Along with Shamar Joseph, Seales caused serious trouble for the Aussie batters in the first innings.
The moment came when Jayden Seales, clearly frustrated pointed toward the Australian dressing room after getting Pat Cummins out. The West Indies pacer wasn’t too happy seeing Cummins fight back with the bat while wickets kept falling around him. Cummins chipped in with a quick 28 off 18 ball hitting three boundaries and a six before Seales finally sent him back.

Jayden Seales Faces Possible ICC Reprimand Despite Five-Wicket Haul
Jayden Seales could face a reprimand from the ICC for the way he celebrated after dismissing Australia’s captain. The West Indies fast bowler ended the day with impressive figures of 5 for 60, while his teammate Shamar Joseph picked up 4 for 46. Batting first, Australia had a tough outing, suffering a major collapse. Usman Khawaja was the only one to stand out, scoring 47. Young opener Sam Konstas, back in the playing XI, was out for just 5 after being trapped LBW by Joseph. Soon after, Cameron Green (3) and Josh Inglis (5) were dismissed in quick succession by Seales and Joseph, leaving Australia in deep trouble.
Once again, it was Travis Head (59) who stepped up for Australia and played a fighting knock. But with little support from the other end, Australia were eventually bowled out for just 180 runs. In reply, the West Indies found themselves in trouble too. By the end of Day 1 in Barbados, they were 57 for 4. Mitchell Starc grabbed two wickets, while Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood took one each. West Indies now trail Australia by 123 runs.
