The last over of this match played in Jaipur was quite exciting. CSK needed 18 runs to win. Dhoni was dismissed on the third ball. Ravindra Jadeja and Mitchell Santner were responsible for winning the match. On the fourth ball, Ben Stokes put a full toss above the waist. On-field umpire Ullas Gandhi gave it a no-ball. But the square leg umpire Bruce Oxenford overturned the decision.

There was a ruckus

This created a ruckus in the CSK camp. Dhoni lost his temper. He got into the field from the dugout and started arguing with the umpires. Such behavior of the captain is rarely seen. Despite Dhoni’s opposition, the umpire remained adamant on his decision. He declared the ball valid. The incident turned the thrill of the match. However, CSK won the match with a six off Santner’s last ball. For this behavior of Dhoni, he was fined 50 percent of the match fees. It became one of the most controversial moments of his career.

Asked for waiver after 6 years

Nearly 6 years later, Dhoni recalled the incident during a conversation at an event. He described it as his ‘big mistake’. Dhoni said, ‘This happened in an IPL match, when I went on the field. That was a big mistake.’ Dhoni further said, ‘There have been many occasions when some things rage you. We are in a game where the bets are very high, you are expected to win every match. You have to manage many things. ‘

Dhoni also advised to keep anger under control. He said, ‘Therefore I say that when you are a little angry or disappointed, keep your mouth shut. Get away from him for some time, try to take a deep breath. It is like handling pressure. If you can separate yourself from the result, it helps. Your feelings should not affect your decisions. ‘
