There was a heated argument between the two during the live match. Seeing the matter heating up, the umpires had to come to intervene.
Why did the argument happen between Yosen and Surya?
The incident of argument between Suryakumar Yadav and Marco Johnson occurred during the 15th over of the second innings. Actually, Suryakumar Yadav threw from deep midwicket, which Sanju Samson came to collect. Yanson got angry after seeing him coming on the pitch and collecting the ball. He also complained about this. However, he himself had hindered him from catching the ball, due to which Samson was not happy. When Suryakumar Yadav saw him complaining, he immediately went to Johnson and a heated argument started between the two regarding this matter.
