The second match of the Asia Cup 2023 tournament is being played today between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. In this match, Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bat first. The entire Bangladesh team could not even play the full 50 overs and the entire team was bundled out for 164 runs. Najmul Hussain Shanto scored the highest 89 runs from the team. Apart from him, no player could cross the 20-run mark.
Bangladesh team had a very bad start and the team lost its 4 important wickets within 130 runs. After this, Mushfiqur Rahim, the most experienced and best player of the Bangladesh team, came to bat, who managed the Bangladesh innings a bit by making a partnership of 32 runs with Nazmul Hussain Shanto, but during this time something happened, which showed Rahim’s long years of experience and Tore the pieces of respect away. Actually, when Mathisha Pathirana was bowling in the 31st over of the first match of this match, Rahim, who was on strike on the second ball of this over of Pathirana, wanted to play a shot, due to which the ball hit the edge of his bat and went into the hands of the wicketkeeper. After which the Sri Lankan bowler and wicketkeeper made a big appeal, but it was declared not out by the umpire. Seeing this, Sri Lankan players Pathirana and Sanaka were completely surprised.
After this, when it was seen in the replay through Speed Fox camera, it was clearly seen that Rahim’s bat had completely touched the ball, despite that, Rahim did not show sportsmanship and remained on the field and also got himself out. Didn’t agree. Rahim was very happy that he had survived even after getting out and he could now play a big innings, but Pathirana, popularly known as Baby Malinga, dismissed Rahim in his very next over. Rahim scored only 13 runs in this match playing 22 balls. Not only this, today when the Bangladesh team was stuck in a difficult situation, it was expected that Rahim would play a good innings, but Rahim’s poor shot made the Bangladesh team lose its sight. This video is going viral very fast on social media, on which people’s reaction is also being seen, people are commenting on it, calling it cheating and stupidity.
