Video When Ganguly Almost Became The First Batsman In International Cricket To Get Timed Out

The rule states that any batsman, arriving later than 3 minutes to the crease at the fall of a wicket, will be deemed ‘timed out’.

It took Sourav Ganguly 6 minutes to come out of the pavilion, leaving everyone confused.

But 2 wickets fell in the first 13 minutes, and the Indian dressing room wasn’t aware of this.

Ganguly then had to pad up quickly. By the time he reached, 6 minutes had elapsed. Umpire Daryl Harper explained the situation to South African captain Graeme Smith who decided not to appeal in the spirit of the game.
