New Zealand cricketers Kane Williamson and Trent Boult created headlines with their humorous interaction featuring Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews during their ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 match at Bangalore’s M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.
Angelo Mathews, who faced a timed-out dismissal against Bangladesh, stepped out to bat in the ninth over. As he made his way to the pitch, Trent Boult said something that brought a smile to Angelo Mathews’ face.
During Angelo Mathews’ turn at the crease, Kiwi captain Kane Williamson joined the lighthearted banter. As the former Sri Lanka captain prepared to take guard, Williamson inquired about his helmet, asking, “Got yourself a sturdy lid, mate? Strap intact?” Angelo Mathews took the good-natured comment in stride, and the two shared a laugh over the exchange.
