Five Controversies Involving Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan

Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan has ignited a new debate over the spirit of cricket after Sri Lanka's Angelo Mathews was 'timed out' in a fiery World Cup clash. It was the first time in the 146-year history of international cricket that such a dismissal had occurred. Mathews was adjudged to be out after failing to take strike within the two-minute time limit when he came out to bat in the game in New Delhi on Monday. Shakib made the appeal which was upheld by the on-field umpires and Mathews branded the Bangladesh captain as "disgraceful".

The 'timed out' dismissal of Angelo Mathews, a first in the 146-year old history of international cricket, has divided the cricket world. The appeal for 'timed out' against the former Sri Lanka captain was done by Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan. The incident happened during the 25th over when Angelo Mathews came at the crease after the fall of the fourth wicket. However, visuals showed his helmet strap came off as he was preparing to face the ball. The umpires deemed that he had taken more than two minutes, by which a batter should be ready to face the ball.
