Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan 2nd T20I: The second T20I match between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan will happen on Monday (Feb 19). Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium in Dambulla will host the game. After winning the first match, Sri Lanka is leading the three-match series 1-0. During the first T20I, the two teams engaged in a closely contested game. Sri Lanka batted first, but their batters failed to convert their starts into big scores. However, skipper Wanindu Hasaranga played a brilliant knock of 67 runs off just 32 balls to help his side reach a total of 160 runs before getting all out in 19 overs. The Afghan bowlers, led by Fazalhaq Farooqi with figures of 3/25, put in a collective effort to restrict the hosts. In response, Afghan skipper Ibrahim Zadran held the innings together from one end, but his teammates kept losing wickets at regular intervals. The game went down to the wire, but Sri Lanka managed to win by four runs and take an early lead in the series.

SL vs AFG 2nd T20I Live Streaming: How to watch Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan 2nd T20I LIVE on mobile, TV in India

It was a record-breaking day at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium on Friday (Feb 9) after Sri Lanka’s Pathum Nissanka became the first batter to score a men's ODI double hundred for the national side. While he broke the record for the national side against Afghanistan in a 42-run win, Afghanistan did not give up easily after they scored 339/6 in response to Sri Lanka’s 381/3. Nissanka was awarded Player of the Match for his unbeaten 210-run knock.

<h2>Afghanistan fall short of target</h2>

Needing a massive 382 runs to win, Afghanistan were short by 42 runs after a poor start to the chase. Afghanistan were 55/5 inside the first powerplay and looked set to lose by a record margin before Azmatullah Omarzai (unbeaten 149) and Mohammad Nabi (136) turn the screws. The pair stitched a partnership of 242, second highest in ODI cricket to launch a comeback. However, that resilience did not last till the end and soon Nabi’s wicket paved the way for Sri Lanka’s win.

<h3>Highest Sixth Partnership in ODIs</h3>

Grant Elliot, Luke Ronchi (New Zealand) – 267* vs Sri Lanka (23 Jan 2015)

Azmatullah Omarzai, Mohammad Nabi (Afghanistan) – 242 vs Sri Lanka (9 Feb 2024)

Mahela Jayawardene, MS Dhoni (Asia XI) – 218 vs Africa XI (10 Jun 2007)

Alex Carey, Glenn Maxwell (Australia) – 212 vs England (16 Sep 2020)

Tatenda Taibu, Stuart Matsikenyeri (Zimbabwe) – 188 vs South Africa (8 Nov 2009)

Shehan Jayasuriya, Dasun Shanaka (Sri Lanka) – 177 vs Pakistan (30 Sep 2019)

<h2>What happened in Sri Lanka’s innings</h2>

Nissanka's 210* was Sri Lanka's first double-century and greatest individual score in ODIs. He surpassed Sanath Jayasuriya's 24-year record. Jayasuriya scored 189 against India in Sharjah in 2000. Nissanka stepped out to open for Sri Lanka after Afghanistan's captain Hashmatullah Shahidi ordered his team to bat. His start was far from ideal, and the batter took his time settling in. However, once the batter had his eye in, he went for the big strokes. He added 182 runs for the opening wicket with Avishka Fernando and didn't relent after his partner fell in the 27th over. Nissanka reached his hundred in the 32nd over, taking 88 balls to get there.

The two nations will next meet on Sunday (Feb 11) with hosts Sri Lanka standing an opportunity to win the three-match ODI series. The hosts have already pocketed the only Test match between the sides at the start of the month and will search for another series win.

SL vs AFG: Nissanka's record-breaking knock helps Sri Lanka clinch thriller despite visitors resolute show

Cricket has myriad ways to dismiss a batter on the crease but one of the rarest forms of dismissal is the 'timed out' which has gained prominence after the Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka World Cup match.&nbsp;

During the match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on November 6, former Sri Lankan captain Angelo Mathews was sent back to the pavilion before facing a single ball. He was timed out by the Bangladesh side and became the first player in the 146-year history of international cricket to be dismissed in such a manner.&nbsp;

After the fall of Sadeera Samarawickrama's wicket, Mathews was ambling out to bat at no. 6. The veteran had already taken his sweet time to arrive at the crease and before he could take guard, he realised that the strap of his helmet had come loose.&nbsp;

Without informing the fielding side, Mathews turned towards the dugout and signalled for a replacement helmet. As Mathews waited, Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan&nbsp;appealed for a "timed out" dismissal and the umpires upheld the appeal much to Mathews' dismay.

<a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/world-cup-2023-angelo-mathews-becomes-first-player-to-be-timed-out-in-international-cricket-655740">Also read |&nbsp;World Cup 2023: Angelo Mathews becomes first player to be 'timed out' in international cricket&nbsp;</a>

<h2>What does the rule say?</h2>

According to the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) rule book, a timed-out dismissal is a legitimate mode of dismissal:

"After the fall of a wicket or the retirement of a batter, the incoming batter must, unless Time has been called, be ready to receive the ball, or for the other batter to be ready to receive the next ball within 3 minutes of the dismissal or retirement. If this requirement is not met, the incoming batter will be out, Timed out."

While the MCC rule states that the batter has three minutes to arrive at the crease after the previous dismissal, the World Cup tournament rule stipulates two minutes. According to rules,&nbsp;the playing conditions supersede the laws.

“After the fall of a wicket or the retirement of a batter, the incoming batter must, unless Time has been called, be ready to receive the ball or for the other batter to be ready to receive the next ball within 2 minutes of the dismissal or retirement. If this requirement is not met, the incoming batter will be out, Timed out,” reads the tournament playing conditions.

<h2>Has it happened before?&nbsp;</h2>

Before Mathews' dismissal, a batter had&nbsp;been timed out only six times in any format, albeit in first-class cricket only. Andrew Jordan was the first player to be dismissed in&nbsp;this mode when he could not resume his overnight innings after failing to reach the ground as the streets had been flooded.&nbsp;

Other instances when timed out dismissal has been invoked:

<ul>
	<li>Hemulal Yadav - Tripura vs Orissa, Cuttack (1997-98)</li>
	<li>Vasbert Drakes - Border vs Free State, East London (2002)</li>
	<li>AJ Harris -&nbsp;Nottinghamshire v Durham UCCE, Nottingham (2003)</li>
	<li>Ryan Austin -&nbsp;Combined Campuses and Colleges v Windward Islands, Kingstown (2013-14)</li>
	<li>Charles Kunje -&nbsp;Matabeleland Tuskers v Mountaineers, Bulawayo (2017)</li>
</ul>

<h2>Any previous instances in international cricket?</h2>

The closest international cricket came to witnessing 'timed out' dismissal was during the third Test match between India and South Africa in Capetown during the 2006-07 series.&nbsp;

During the second innings, after India lost both their openers, Sachin Tendulkar, the designated no. 4 could not stride out to bat as he had spent time off (18 minutes) the pitch&nbsp;during South Africa’s innings on day three. Tendulkar was ineligible to bat for another 18 minutes and this led to a kerfuffle in the Indian dressing room.&nbsp;

With VVS Laxman still in the shower, captain Sourav Ganguly found himself rushing against time to reach the popping crease. In the end, Ganguly arrived in the middle but only after a six-minute delay.

If it not been for South Africa’s generosity, especially captain Graeme Smith who decided against the 'timed-out' appeal, Ganguly would have become the first victim of the mode of dismissal.

Two Asian powerhouses, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, will square off in Match 30 of the World Cup 2023 in Pune on Monday. While Sri Lanka sits in fourth place with four points from five games, Afghanistan is in seventh place, ahead of the Netherlands and the defending champions England. With an eye on the spot in the semis, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan would bring their A-game to the table. Here is the match preview and result prediction of Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan in World Cup 2023.

<h2>Sri Lanka is in better position heading forward</h2>

Having beaten England in their previous clash in Bengaluru, Sri Lanka would enter this contest with confidence on their back. Although injuries to their starters must have hampered their initial plans, the addition of some world-class names will boost their chances of pouncing on the momentum.

Angelo Mathews and Dushmantha Chameera returning to the final 15 as injury replacements of Pathirana and Kumara will raise Sri Lanka’s chances of winning two straight matches.&nbsp;

However, the batting unit would again have everyone’s attention, mainly captain and top-scorer Kusal Mendis and Sadeera Samarawickrama, alongside opener Pathum Nissanka, who scored an unbeaten fifty against England.

<h3>Afghanistan not ready to let its guard down</h3>

Afghanistan, not an associate team anymore, have&nbsp;won two matches against England and Pakistan and looks like a side to beat on their day. Clicking as a unit in five contested games thus far, Afghanistan have&nbsp;impressed one and all and come&nbsp;across as a threat to each team they play.&nbsp;

With the spin quartet of Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmed, Mujeeb-ur-Rahman and veteran Mohammad Nabi, Afghanistan will keep Sri Lanka on their toes.&nbsp;

Much like Sri Lanka, Afghanistan’s batters are also in fine touch, with openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran catching the most attention.

<h3>Result Prediction</h3>

While Afghanistan should not get discounted, given the form they are in, Sri Lanka will enter this contest as favourites to win.

Predicted XIs of both teams –

Sri Lanka - Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Perera, Kusal Mendis (c &amp; wk), Sadeera Samarawickrama, Charith Asalanka, Dhananjaya de Silva, Angelo Mathews, Maheesh Theekshana, Kasun Rajitha, Dushmantha Chameera and Dilshan Madushanka

Afghanistan - Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Ibrahim Zadran, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi (c), Azmatullah Omarzai, Ikram Alikhil (wk), Mohammad Nabi, Rashid Khan, Naveen-ul-Haq, Fazalhaq Farooqi and Noor Ahmad
