The clash between Bangladesh and New Zealand in the 2nd test match series in Dhaka has unfolded as an intense battle of skill and strategy. As of the latest update, Bangladesh, having secured a 1-0 lead, is facing a crucial moment in the match. They won the toss and elected to bat first, currently standing at 154/9 in 62 overs. However, amidst the intensity of the game, one pivotal moment captured the attention of cricket FANS worldwide – the dismissal of Mushfiqur Rahim.

In a surprising turn of events on the first day of the test, during the second session, Mushfiqur Rahim faced an unexpected challenge when he was penalized for obstructing the field. In the 41st over, Rahim attempted to block the ball with his hand, leading to a contentious situation. The Kiwi players, as anticipated, protested vehemently, but the umpires ultimately gave the decision in their favour.

What makes Rahim’s dismissal even more intriguing is the classification of the offence as ‘obstructing the field’ rather than the more conventional ‘handling the ball.’ This departure from the norm adds a layer of complexity to the incident. In 2017, the cricketing world witnessed a modification in the ‘obstructing the field’ rule, encompassing ‘handling the ball,’ which was previously one of eleven modes of dismissal in cricket. Rahim, in this context, finds himself on the wrong side of this rule.

Regrettably, this is not Rahim’s first encounter with controversy. The cricketer has now become one of the eleven players who have been caught tampering with the ball in international cricket. This stain on his record undoubtedly raises questions about his sportsmanship and adherence to the ethical standards of the game.

The unique nature of Rahim’s dismissal prompts a closer look at the evolution of the ‘obstructing the field’ rule in cricket. Originally, this rule pertained to a batsman deliberately impeding a fielder’s attempt to run them out. However, with the inclusion of ‘handling the ball’ in 2017, the scope of this dismissal method expanded.
