The tension arose when Tino Best attempted to leave the field citing injury concerns after completing his over. Yuvraj Singh raised this with umpire Billy Bowden, who requested Best to return to the field.
Best, visibly upset, confronted Yuvraj Singh, leading to a verbal exchange between the two players.

"He (Tino Best) is someone who doesn't back down. He is someone who likes to have a chat. Two players who don't back down. That's when you get an issue," commented former England pacer Darren Gough from the commentary box.
Following the confrontation, Yuvraj Singh hit a six and pointed his bat at Best, reminiscent of the 2007 T20 World Cup where he hit six sixes in Stuart Broad's over after a heated exchange with Andrew Flintoff.
The tension eventually dissipated during the second strategic time-out, with Yuvraj Singh playfully patting Best's back.
In the match, India Masters successfully chased down the target of 149 runs with 17 balls remaining. Ambati Rayudu played a crucial innings of 74 runs.

India Masters' bowling attack was led by Vinay Kumar, who took three wickets, while Shahbaz Nadeem claimed two dismissals.
