The cricket world has been turned upside down since Angelo Mathews was timed out against Bangladesh, becoming the first batsman to be dismissed in that manner.

In Match 41 of the World Cup 2023 in Bengaluru, the veteran all-rounder took the field against New Zealand on Thursday, November 9. As expected, everyone's eyes were focused on him as he walked down into the middle.

To inject some humor into the middle, Trent Boult and Kane Williamson were in Mathews' path as he moved toward the crease. As Boult was grinning at Mathews, the New Zealand captain approached the Sri Lankan player for a brief conversation.
