Skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni was "fired up" by the way the last-over no-ball was handled and walked on to the field to get some clarity over the whole incident, Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming said.
In a rare instance, Dhoni, who was not even meant to be on the field of play, lost his cool and rushed out of the dug-out to challenge umpire Ulhas Gandhe after he flip-flopped on a no ball during the IPL match against Rajasthan Royal on Thursday night.
"He was certainly fired up the way the decision was handled and why it was overturned. It was a lack of clarity, obviously from him and he wanted to get it clarified at a key moment," Fleming said in the post-match presentation.
"It is unusual, he is generally pretty calculative, so it is something that he will be questioned about I am sure for a long time."
"I can't say whether it was right or not. What wasn't right was the confusion around the decision. It is above my pay grade early to go further than that."
