Angelo Mathews makes history as the first player to be timed out

Sri Lanka's Angelo Mathews makes history as the first player to be timed out in international cricket during the World Cup clash against Bangladesh.

Mathews was timed out after taking more than two minutes to face his first delivery, which is against the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 playing conditions. The incident happened in the 25th over of the Sri Lanka innings when Shakib Al Hasan had just dismissed Sadeera Samarawickrama. Mathews took his time walking in and then struggled with his helmet as the strap broke just as he was taking guard. As he signaled to the dressing room for a new helmet, Shakib and the Bangladesh team appealed for a "timed out" dismissal, and the umpires upheld the appeal much to Mathews' dismay.

According to the Laws of Cricket,
“After the fall of a wicket or the retirement of a batter, the incoming batter must, unless Time has been called, be ready to receive the ball, or for the other batter to be ready to receive the next ball within 3 minutes of the dismissal or retirement. If this requirement is not met, the incoming batter will be out, Timed out.”
