"Get Your Bloody Finger Up": Latham's Outburst at Umpire Wharf in NZ-WI Test

• New Zealand captain Tom Latham confronted umpire Alex Wharf for not giving Kemar Roach out twice during the first Test against West Indies.
• Latham's outburst, "Come on, Wharfy, get your bloody finger up, mate!", followed two appeals where replays suggested Roach was out.
• New Zealand had no reviews left to challenge the umpire's decisions, which later showed Roach would have been dismissed.
• The incidents occurred as Kemar Roach (58) and Justin Greaves (202) batted for a historic draw, with West Indies achieving the second-highest fourth-innings total in Test history (457/6).
• Latham's frustration was exacerbated by New Zealand's depleted side due to injuries to players like Tom Blundell, Nathan Smith, and Matt Henry.
