Masood was playing for Yorkshire in T20 Blast against Lancashire.
Masood hit his wicket in the 15th over of the innings while attempting to scoop the ball. However, the bowler bowled a no-ball and was declared not out. He moved out of his crease as Joe Root called for a single, but gave up after a few feet. He was run out in the process, and the opposition interpreted it as a dismissal.
However, the umpire deemed Masood not out as the batter was on his way to the pavilion.
Masood was not out both times he was dismissed. The ball on which he got out hit wicket was a no-ball. Then the run out was also denied as the umpire felt that Masood was not trying to take a run and had thought that he was dismissed due to hit wicket.
As per Law 31.7 in the MCC rulebook, an umpire can intervene if he or she is satisfied that a batter, not having been given out, has left the wicket under a misunderstanding of being out. Therefore, the umpire called back Masood to resume his innings.
Here is the video:
After the match, Masood said, "I mean, from my end, I tried to play shot and the ball hit my grill. And for me, it was like I stood my ground wanting, wanting treatment. And I was confused. Rooty (Joe Root) was running, and then eventually I ran. So for me, it was more about being hit. Is it a dead ball? Do we get the physio on? And I just yeah, that was my recollection of it."
"Rooty did tell me a no-ball has been called. And that's about all I remember. But then we waited for the umpires to take the decision and big on Ben and Keaton, everyone moved on and the match went on," he further added.
