Well, that wasn’t cool

Angelo made his crease then his helmet strap broke. How is that timed out? I'm all for timed out if he doesn't make his crease but this is ridic. No different then a batsman getting to the crease then taking 3 minutes to face up #cricketworldcup

Absolutely pathetic what happened in Delhi today! #AngeloMathews

Yes rules are rules, but there is a term called "Spirit of Cricket" which applies on such situations. Bangladesh would have done a better thing had it given Angelo Matthews a margin.

One should trust in their abilities to win matches.#CWC23 | #BANvSL

Spirit of cricket long gone!! Eye opener for all batters from today onwards incase if it was not. Well within the rules to appeal. If Anjelo had informed Umpires & Shakib about wanting to change the helmet situation would have been different. #icccricketworldcup2023 #slvban

Not my job to speak about morals and sportsmanship 2 mins between Batsman dismissal and next Batsman ready to face #Angelomathews couldn’t do it that’s the bottom line #SLvsBan

If I was #Shakib I would not have appealed as a Captain and I would have broken more than just a helmet if I was #AngeloMathews #SLvsBan

Spirit of the game should remain high always. @Angelo69Mathews @BCBtigers @Sah75official @ICC #CWC23 pic.twitter.com/MFl5ErQQWQ

I’ve woken up in a sweat 700 times before dreaming about it and today it’s come to life: An equipment time-out. Halloween was last week man, stop it https://t.co/kosnuVvyPH
