Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan received a 'Clock' sending-off after getting dismissed against Sri Lanka on Monday.

The Bangladesh captain batted quite exquisitely against Sri Lanka and scored 82 off 65 balls. But the southpaw was dismissed at the hands of Angelo Mathews.

In the first delivery of the 32nd over, Shakib tried to play on the leg side and only managed a leading edge, which was gobbled easily by Charith Asalanka.

After dismissing Shakib, Angelo Mathews pointed to his hand showing a time gesture as the Bangladesh captain was walking away towards the pavilion.

It all happened after Angelo Mathews was Timed Out by Bangladesh earlier. The Sri Lankan all-rounder came to the crease with a faulty helmet and as he called a substitute to change it, Bangladeshi players appealed to the umpire.

Mathews tried to explain Shakib about the situation, but he decided not to withdraw his appeal. Shakib Al Hasan has faced backlash after the incident across the cricketing fraternity, and Angelo Mathews' gesture is nothing but giving back Shakib a dose of his own medicine.
