The ODI World Cup match played on November 6, 2023 has been recorded in the pages of history for a special incident. Angelo Mathews was given a time out during Sri Lanka’s innings. This was the first time in international cricket that a batsman was timed out. Angelo Mathews came to the ground after Sadeera Samarawickrama’s wicket fell in the 25th over of Sri Lanka’s innings. He was getting ready to bat when the strap of his helmet broke. In such a situation, he asked for another helmet. By the time the helmet came from the dressing room and Mathews came down to play, 2 minutes had passed. Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan appealed to the umpire to give Mathews out. The umpire also asked Shakib whether he was doing this as a joke or really appealing. Shakib stood by the appeal and Mathews was declared out. Mathews tried to persuade Shakib a lot, but he had to return to the pavilion. After this, a three-match T20 series was played between the two teams in March this year, which Sri Lanka won 2-1.
