On July 31, 2011, during the Test between England and India at Trent Bridge, Ian Bell was run out on the last ball before tea. He had left his crease, and “wandered up the pitch to congratulate his team-mate and head off for tea,” Wisden reported. Under the Laws of cricket, he was out.
During the interval England’s captain, Andrew Strauss, and coach, Andy Flower, visited India’s dressing room. India’s captain, M.S. Dhoni, withdrew the appeal. “When play restarted after tea, a few minutes late, it was Bell who jogged down the steps.” The ICC later gave Dhoni its Spirit of Cricket award.
