ICC Cricket World Cup 2023: Angelo Mathews makes history over 'timed-out’ dismissal

Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan has triggered a debate on the spirit of cricket before smashing a rapid 82 to eliminate Sri Lanka from the Cricket World Cup. An early appeal by Shakib led to Sri Lanka's Angelo Mathews becoming the first player to be "timed out" in an international match when he failed to take guard at the crease within the two minutes required. Former player of the Nepali national cricket, Sunam Gautam, looks back at the fifth week of the tournament. He spoke to SBS Nepali about the world cup, and Nepal's recent success in being selected for the Men's T20 World Cup 2024.
