Editing Timed out (section)

==Dismissals==
===Test cricket matches===

No batter has been dismissed timed out in [[Test cricket]] as of November 2023, but there are some notable incidents where a batter could have potentially been dismissed in this manner:

# During the third Test at [[Cape Town]]'s [[Newlands Cricket Ground]] of the [[Indian cricket team in South Africa in 2006–07#Third Test .282.E2.80.936 January.29|2006–2007 series]] between [[India national cricket team|India]] and [[South Africa national cricket team|South Africa]], India quickly lost two opening batters at the start of their second innings. [[Sachin Tendulkar]] was listed as the fourth batter, but as he had been replaced as a fielder for 18 minutes at the end of South Africa's first innings, he was ineligible to bat in India's second innings until another 18 minutes had expired from its commencement. After confusion in the Indian dressing room about Tendulkar's ineligibility resulting in a six-minute delay, [[Sourav Ganguly]] came in as the next batter. South African captain [[Graeme Smith]] did not appeal for a "timed out" dismissal of the incoming batter as the Umpires had told him it would not be entertained due to confusing information given by the match referee regarding Tendulkar's short suspension, and Ganguly was allowed to commence his innings.<ref name="ESPNcricinfo - 5 January 2007 - Out of sight, out of time">{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/rsavind/content/story/275283.html|title=Out of sight, out of time|author=Dileep Premachandran|date=5 January 2007|work=[[ESPNcricinfo]]|publisher=[[ESPN Inc.]]|accessdate=17 March 2015}}</ref>
# During the second Test in the [[2023 Ashes series]], Australian player [[Nathan Lyon]] suffered a severe calf injury while fielding that prevented him from moving at a normal pace. During the Australian second innings he decided to take his place as the final batter and to avoid the potential for England to appeal and have him dismissed by a time out, Lyon moved closer to the field than the Australian players pavilion so he could hobble onto the ground within the time limit. He avoided being timed out, scoring 4 runs before he was dismissed.

=== One Day International cricket===
The first batter in [[One Day International cricket]] (or indeed in any form of international cricket)<ref name="Guardian11-2023">{{Cite news |last=Martin |first=Ali |date=2023-11-06 |title=Sri Lanka's Angelo Mathews timed out in World Cup loss to Bangladesh |url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/nov/06/angelo-mathews-becomes-first-international-cricketer-to-be-timed-out-sri-lanka-world-cup |access-date=2024-01-06 |work=The Guardian |language=en-GB |issn=0261-3077}}</ref> to be timed out was [[Angelo Mathews]] in a [[2023 Cricket World Cup group stage|group stage match]] against [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]] during the [[2023 Cricket World Cup]].  Mathews was making his way to the crease after the dismissal of [[Sadeera Samarawickrama]] when his helmet strap broke and he sought a replacement helmet on the edge of the field before being ready to face the next ball, with the time taken between Samarawikrama's dismissal and Mathews' readiness to face the next ball consequently exceeding the 2 minutes permitted under the tournament playing conditions.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/67333235 | title=Mathews' unwanted history - watch unique dismissal, reaction and vote | work=BBC Sport }}</ref> Subsequently, Bangladesh captain [[Shakib Al Hasan]] appealed for timed out, which was upheld by the on-field umpires [[Richard Illingworth]] and [[Marais Erasmus]]. Despite Mathews' protestations, Shakib refused to withdraw the appeal. The dismissal generated controversy, with some praising and others criticising Shakib for his actions.<ref name="Telegraph11-2023">{{Cite news |last1=Macpherson |first1=Will |last2=Burrows |first2=Josh |date=2023-11-06 |title='Disgraceful': Sri Lanka outraged as Angelo Mathews timed out against Bangladesh |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/cricket/2023/11/06/angelo-mathews-timed-out-sri-lanka-bangladesh-world-cup/ |access-date=2024-01-06 |work=The Telegraph |language=en-GB |issn=0307-1235}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=6 November 2023 |title=Mathews dismissed timed out: 'Eye-opener for all batters' |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/icc-cricket-world-cup-2023-angelo-mathews-dismissed-timed-out-usman-khawaja-dale-steyn-gautam-gambhir-react-1407530 |access-date=6 March 2025 |publisher=[[ESPNcricinfo]] }}</ref> It later emerged that Mathews would not have been ready to face the next ball in time even had his helmet strap not broke, and that he had been warned by the umpires about the possibility of being timed out before the helmet malfunction.<ref name=mathews-informed-umpires>{{Cite web |last=Gollapudi |first=Nagraj|date=8 November 2023 |title=Umpires informed Mathews of timed-out threat before helmet malfunction |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/icc-world-cup-2023-ban-vs-sl-umpires-informed-angelo-mathews-of-timed-out-threat-before-helmet-malfunction-1407743 |access-date=6 March 2025 |publisher=[[ESPNcricinfo]] }}</ref>

===Twenty20 International cricket===
The first batter in [[Twenty20 International]] cricket to be out Timed out was [[Ghana national cricket team|Ghana]]'s [[Godfred Bakiweyem]] against [[Sierra Leone national cricket team|Sierra Leone]] in the [[2023 ACA Africa T20 Cup|2023 Africa Cricket Association Africa T20 Cup]], occurring only a month after the aforementioned Mathews dismissal in One Day International cricket.  Notably, Bakiweyem was involved in another unusual dismissal earlier in the same match when Sierra Leone's [[Abass Gbla]] made intentional contact with Bakiweyem while Bakiweyem was attempting to run Gbla out, resulting in Gbla being given out [[obstructing the field]].<ref name="bakiweyem-dismissal">{{Cite web |date=2023-12-18 |title=Watch: Batters given out obstructing the field and timed out in Ghana-Sierra Leone Africa Cup T20I |url=https://www.wisden.com/cricket-news/watch-batters-given-out-obstructing-the-field-and-timed-out-in-ghana-sierra-leone-africa-cup-t20i |access-date=2025-02-07 |website=Wisden |language=en}}</ref>
