It was actually the same incident, Mahmadulla started shouting at the umpire in a way probably not seen on an international cricket field since the famous Gatting-Shakoor Rana spat -- at one point I thought he was gonna hit poor Jeremiah Matibiri. Then Mushfiqur stepped in, sent Mahmadulla away but continued arguing angrily.
I have no idea what that was about (and no-one in the commentary box had either). Mahmudulla had just bowled two wides at Williams and Mahmudulla was gesturing towards Williams, what for, heaven knows ...

Anything on the BD grapevine, Kriterion?
I still haven't read the match threads. I slept through both T20s after watching all of the Tests and ODIs. Didn't even bother setting an alarm from the first T20, but did for the second one, woke up, said "F*** it", shut the alarm off, and went back to sleep.
A BC member did post a minute long vid on facebook. Sounded like just Mahmudullah talking shit before Rahim appeared to intervene in Mahmudullah's favor. Mahmud alleges that Williams provoked him or that the umpire ignored Williams' barbs and only warned him.
