Another day and another exciting fixture is going on. England and the Netherlands are locking horns at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. Both teams are not in a very good stage in the points table. England is already out of the tournament. They are trying hard to end their World Cup journey on a winning note. But a funny gesture of Chris Woakes caught the attention.
Chris’s Gesture:
England and the Netherlands are facing each other. After a long, England is playing good cricket. In between this, a moment happened and it caught attention. While English star Chris Woakes came in 36th over. He has gotten an issue with his helmet. Then he showed it to the umpire to not get dismissed in the ‘Timed Out’ rule. Netizens find it hilarious.
Against Bangladesh, veteran Sri Lankan all-rounder Angelo Mathews got out on a ‘Timed Out’ dismissal. That was a controversial moment. When he came to bat, he also had an issue with his helmet. While he was busy fixing it, Bangladesh skipper Shakin Al Hasan appealed for the ‘Timed Out’ dismissal. The umpire had to give him out.
England’s amazing innings:
England has shown their characters after a long time. Initially, England won the toss and opted to bat first. Dawid Malan gave a solid start. He played a valuable knock of 87 runs in 74 balls.

He got out after scoring 51 runs in 45 balls.
