Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews didn't hold back in expressing his frustration and anger over his timed out dismissal during their clash against Bangladesh in the ongoing World Cup at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Monday. A rare moment in the history of cricket took place in the 25th over of the first innings. Mathews was adjudged timed out after he failed to arrive at the crease within two minutes of Sadeera Samarawickrama's dismissal.

Shakib made an appeal, and the umpire decided to send Mathews back as it was within the laws of World Cup cricket. Mathews had a conversation with Shakib but in the end, he didn't call back his decision forcing the veteran all-rounder to depart. After Sri Lanka's defeat, Mathews went on to state that they have video evidence that he was at the crease within two minutes and they will put out a statement later on.

"Obviously, you all play to win. And if it's within the rule, it's fine. But the rule clearly says, in my incident today, within two minutes I was there. We have video evidence. We will put out a statement later on. We have video evidence, footage, everything was looked. I'm not just coming and saying things here. I'm talking with proof," Mathews said in the post-match press conference.

"So, we have the video evidence where from the time the catch was taken, and then from the time I walked into the crease, I still had five seconds after breaking my helmet. So, we talk about safety of the players - you guys tell me if It's right for me to take my guard without my helmet on? It's just pure common sense," Mathews added.
