Dhoni gets angry with Chahar for bowling back-to-back no-balls

With KXIP needing 39 runs off 12 balls to win the match, Chahar was called to bowl against a well set Sarfaraz Khan, but full-tosses above the waist height gave two free hits to Punjab, as one of them was hit for a blistering boundary by Khan

It’s very rare to see MS Dhoni loose his cool on the cricket field. However, one such incident took place during CSK vs KXIP match at Chennai. The veteran was seen giving an earful to Chahar after he bowled back-to-back no-balls at the start of his over (19th over). With KXIP needing 39 runs off 12 balls to win the match, Chahar was called to bowl against a well set Sarfaraz Khan, but full-tosses above the waist height gave two free hits to Punjab, as one of them was hit for a blistering boundary by Khan. Rightfully miffed with Chahar, Dhoni then walked over to him and gave him some important advice. As a result, Chahar bowled a perfect yorker for the free hit and also took out dangerous looking David Miller, ensuring that his squad has a good total (26 runs) to defend in the final over of the match. Here's the Video... Chennai Super Kings (CSK) held their nerves to beat Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) by 22 runs in the match number 18 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Saturday evening. Chasing a modest 161-run target, the visitors received a couple of early jolts before Rahul (55) and Sarfaraz (67) anchored the Punjab innings with a crucial 110-run stand for the second wicket. However, it was not enough to help them cross the line as Chennai registered their fourth win from five matches. With this victory, CSK have jumped up to the top spot on the points table with 8 points in their kitty.
