Angelo Mathews has shared a video as 'evidence' to dispute his 'time out' decision during the World Cup 2023 match against Bangladesh at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Monday, November 6. In a tweet before the 'evidence', he claimed there were still 5 seconds left to fix his helmet when the problem occurred. Mathews wrote, “The fourth umpire is wrong here! Video evidence shows I still had 5 more seconds after the helmet went away! Can the fourth umpire please rectify this? I mean safety is paramount because I could not face the bowler without a helmet.

In the post-match press conference, Mathews criticized Bangladesh and their captain Shakib Al Hasan, calling their behavior disrespectful. He said that he had followed the two-minute rule to get ready but the equipment malfunctioned.
