You should have taken the IELTS for UKVI which is known as SELT.
The British council clarified the difference from normal IELTS on their website:
IELTS (Academic or General Training)
If you’re applying for Tier 1 and Tier 2 visas to the UK, this is the test for you.
IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training for UKVI are designed to meet certain administrative requirements that are specified by the UK Home Office.
The actual test taken is the same as IELTS (for all other purposes), same content, examiners, format, level of difficulty, scoring and so on.
The difference is in the customer journey on the test day. Test Report Forms will be slightly different, to show that you have taken the test at an IELTS UK visa session.

Seems like there is nothing to say in Administrative Review do you think that any ground can be created for Administrative review?
