The incident occurred during the second ODI of the three-match series between Bangladesh and Pakistan at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka. Talat was injured while attempting to prevent a boundary.

During the sixth over of the second innings, Talat dashed towards the cover boundary after Litton Das hit a delivery from Mohammad Wasim through the cover point.
