Angelo Mathews becomes first ever batter to be TIMED OUT in international cricket’s 146 years long history
TIMED OUT!
Angelo Mathews became the first ever batter to be TIMED OUT in international cricket which has a 146-year-long history!
Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews became the first-ever batter to be timed out in the history of international cricket during the World Cup 2023 group match against Bangladesh in New Delhi on Monday.
Mathews came in to bat after Shakib Al Hasan had dismissed Sadeera Samarawickrama, who had scored 41 off 42 balls
But he came to the crease with the wrong helmet and wanted to replace it, but the time was already over.
Mathews fell victim to a rare ‘Timed Out‘ dismissal.
The strap of Mathews’ helmet broke as he walked to bat and the Sri Lankan all-rounder wanted it to get changed, and out came the other one.
While he waited for a replacement, Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan made an appeal, which was upheld by the on-field umpire.
Delayed walk, helmet trouble, and a replacement helmet call led Bangladesh to appeal for a time-out.
And that was granted!
As per the cricket rules, batters are to reach the crease within 2 minutes after being dismissed.
Cricket fans are going berserk over the rare Timed Out dismissal!
🏏😔THIS is FIRST TIME in INTERNATIONAL CRICKET.

Angelo Mathews timed out . He tried to convince shakib ul Hassan that he had some issue with his helmet . Shakib refused to take back appeal.
Shakib ul Hassan is disgrace to cricket. He must retire after this world pic.twitter.com/sCfECDLXf4— Huzaifff !! (@HuzaifManzoor2) November 6, 2023
Why did Shakib Al Hasan not withdraw his appeal when Angelo Mathews tried explaining to him? #CWC23 #SLvsBAN pic.twitter.com/OMDHYyYW2d
