Angelo Mathews Makes History as First Cricketer to be Timed Out in World Cup 2023
During a recent match against Bangladesh in the ongoing World Cup 2023, Angelo Mathews made history becoming the first cricketer to be timed out in international cricket. The decision has sparked debate and discussion among fans and experts alike.
This unusual dismissal adds to a list of freak dismissals in international cricket over the years. One notable example is Vinoo Mankad running out the non-striker for backing up too much in 1947. Another is the infamous incident at the Eden Gardens, where Sachin Tendulkar was run out after being pushed Shoaib Akhtar while attempting to reach the crease.
These unconventional dismissals have captured the attention of cricket fans and have become a part of the sport’s rich history. As the World Cup 2023 continues, the debate around Mathews’ timed out dismissal is sure to persist.
