(Watch) Mushfiqur Rahim Getting Out For Handling The Ball In The BAN vs NZ 2nd Test.
Bangladesh’s Mushfiqur Rahim faced an unusual dismissal during the first day of the second Test against New Zealand, adding his name to the rare list of cricketers who have been out for ‘handling the ball.’ Rahim, who typically uses his hands while stationed around the stumps, fell victim to this unique mode of dismissal during an over bowled by New Zealand’s Kyle Jamieson.

This incident marked Rahim as the first-ever Bangladeshi player to be dismissed in this manner, joining the exclusive company of cricketers such as Mohinder Amarnath, Mohsin Khan, and Michael Vaughan who have faced a similar fate.
Handling the ball dismissals are infrequent in international cricket, and Rahim now stands as the 11th player to have been sent back to the dressing room for using his hands when the ball was not dead. Despite scoring 35 runs from 83 balls, Rahim had to make an unexpected return to the pavilion due to this rare reason.
