Wednesday also witnessed another controversial dismissal in international cricket. The incident took place during the Bangladesh-New Zealand Test match. Bangladesh middle order batsman and wicket keeper Mushfiqur Rahim interfered with the fielders while batting and the ball hit the bat and went out with his hand. The controversial dismissal came on the fourth ball of the 41st over.
All Mushfiqur did was hit the ball thrown by Kyle Jamison in a defensive style. However, the Kiwis players all appealed against the player trying to hold him with his hand after this. The ground umpires were suspicious and left the matter to the third umpire.

Mushfiqur is found guilty in TV replays. A batsman has no right to touch the ball immediately after hitting the bat. The Bangladeshi player has done a blatant violation of this. Footage of the eviction is going viral on social media.
Mushfiqur will now hold the record of being the first Bangladeshi player to be dismissed in this manner. The player got out after scoring 35 runs from 82 balls. With this, Bangladesh fell to 104/5.
