'Video Tablet' Causes Controversy After India Vs Great Britain Olympic Hockey Match
Indian hockey goalkeeper PR Sreejesh may have been the talk of the town after India’s quarter-final win over Great Britain at the 2024 Paris Olympics, but his opponent Ollie Payne also made headlines. The Great Britain goalkeeper came under scrutiny after he was initially allowed to carry an iPad during the shoot-out, which the Indian team protested. The referees, under scrutiny by Hockey India, subsequently decided to confiscate the device before India took their second penalty.
Hockey India President Dilip Tirkey expressed his views on the incident and termed it a disruption that must be avoided.
“According to the rules, notepads are not allowed to be kept on the side where the shootout takes place. This can cause inconvenience. Such high-level matches require a more careful referee,” Tirkey said.
Former Olympic medallist Gagan Narang took to social media to show his appreciation for support staff member Shivendra Singh, who had spotted the British team using the iPad during the shoot-out.
“Without taking anything away from the players, Shivendra Singh’s keen observation during the shoot-out played a major role in the iPad being taken off the field,” Narang wrote.
“Such efforts by the backroom staff deserve unbounded praise,” he added.
Hockey India concerned about referees
Hockey India also released a statement on Sunday, raising serious concerns over the standard of refereeing and decision-making at the Olympics. Hockey India raised concerns over the inconsistent use of video reviews in the case of defender Amit Rohidas who was shown a red card, as well as the use of the iPad by Ollie Payne.
Rack:
Inconsistent video referee ratings
Hockey India highlighted the inconsistent implementation of video umpire reviews, specifically pointing to the red card decision against an Indian player (Amit Rohidas). This inconsistency has undermined confidence in the video review system among players, coaches and fans.
Rohidas was shown a red card after the video referee made a subjective decision that the stick was a deliberate attempt to injure a player by lifting the stick. Many observers felt that Rohidas' action was part of his biomechanical movement and was not intentional.
Coaching during shoot-outs
Another bone of contention was the coaching of the Great Britain goalkeeper behind the goalpost during the shoot-out. Such actions are seen as a breach of fair play and have raised questions about the integrity of the match, Hockey India said in its statement.
Goalkeeper using a video tablet
The use of a video tablet by the Great Britain goalkeeper during the shoot-out has also come under scrutiny. The unusual practice has raised concerns about the rules and fairness of the competition.
