Angelo Mathews became the first player to be dismissed 'timed out' as he had to walk back without facing a ball after his helmet strap had broken during the Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 match on November 6. The veteran walked out to the middle after Sadeera Samarawickrama was dismissed in the 25th over. Mathews walked in and took guard when the strap of his helmet broke. He then called for a new helmet and some time was taken. While all of this was going on, Bangladesh appealed to the umpire. An animated discussion then ensued between Mathews and the umpire after which the latter was given 'timed out.' As per the rule, a new batter has to be ready to face the ball within two minutes of the dismissal. If he fails to do so, he will be out 'Timed Out'. ‘What a Wow’ Mushfiqur Rahim Takes an Absolute Blinder To Dismiss Kusal Perera During BAN vs SL CWC 2023 Match, Ramiz Raja on Commentary Uses Viral Catchphrase To Describe Catch (Watch Video).
