For the next few days, one term that will be spoken about a lot is 'timed out'. Angelo Mathews and Shakib Al Hasan got a permanent place in the cricket history as the duo was involved in one of the rarest dismissals in cricket, that too in a Cricket World Cup match.

Former Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews was given 'timed out' - for the first time in the history of international cricket -  with rival captain Shakib Al Hasan appealing for it.

The decision left the cricket world divided. Shakib was within the rules to appeal for the timed out decision. Shakib Al Hasan played a big part, scoring 82, as Sri Lanka failed to defend a 279-run target against Bangladesh. "One of our fielders came to me and said that if I appealed, he would be out.

The umpire asked me if I was serious. It's in the laws; I don't know if it's right or wrong. I felt like I was at war. Whatever I had to do, I did it.
