During the 12th over of Chennai Super Kings’ chase, Kohli was observed engaging in a conversation with the umpires, prompting Hayden to express his unhappiness on air. Hayden emphasized that Kohli, as a non-captain, should not be actively involved in such discussions with the umpires.
Kohli’s animated behavior extended beyond the incident with the umpires. He was seen expressing his emotions on the field, celebrating wickets with enthusiasm and providing guidance to bowlers.
Despite Kohli’s passionate display, Hayden’s criticism raises questions about his role and the etiquette expected of players on the field. The former opener’s remarks highlight the need for players to respect the designated responsibilities within a team and avoid overstepping their boundaries.
