Mathews becomes first 'timed out' dismissal in international cricket

Sri Lanka's Angelo Mathews was on Monday given "timed out" in a World Cup clash against Bangladesh, becoming the first man to suffer the dismissal in the history of international cricket.

The former captain took more than two minutes to take strike after having issues with his helmet and opposition skipper Shakib Al Hasan appealed, which was upheld by the on-field umpire.
