Bangladesh<\/a> batsman Mushfigur Rahim has been given out for handling the ball against New Zealand in the second Test in Mirpur.<\/p>\n

During the first innings,\ufeff Rahim touched the ball straight after he blocked the delivery from New Zealand fast bowler Kyle Jamieson, and sent walking by umpire Rod Tucker in the 41st over.<\/p>\n

Rahim becomes the first ever Bangladesh batsman to be dismissed\ufeff this way and just the eighth all time in Test cricket.<\/p>\n

The ball was not in line to hit the stumps, however Rahim was given out because of "field obstruction", with the Kiwis quick to appeal to have him sent packing.\ufeff<\/p>\n

Before his dismissal, Rahim managed to be his side's top run scorer, notching up 35 runs.<\/p>\n

Bangladesh had a poor start that saw them sitting at 4-47 but soon fought back, despite Rahim's bizarre dismissal\ufeff.<\/p>\n

Rahim is only the eighth player to fall victim to the rare ball handling ruling since the laws governing cricket were rewritten in 2017.<\/p>\n

Before him came English cricketer Michael Vaughan, who took to social media to "welcome" Rahim to the club.<\/p>\n

"Welcome to the very exclusive Handled ball club @mushfiqur15<\/a> … only proper players are members," Vaughan said on X on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Vaughan's incident occurred\ufeff during the third Test of England's tour of India in 2001-2002, when he miss-swept, lodging the ball between his glove and left leg as Indian wicketkeeper Deep Dasgupta struggled to get a hold on the ball.<\/p>\n

Vaughan then picked up the ball and rolled it to the side of the pitch.\ufeff<\/p>\n

Indian bowler Sarandeep Singh appealed, with Vaughan then given out under the "handle the ball" law (now "obstructing the field").<\/p>\n

New Zealand trail Bangladesh by 117 runs with five wickets remaining, as the sides head into the second day of the second Test.\ufeff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
