The five-time champions, who Sri Lankan legend Mahela Jayawardene coaches, have enjoyed a great time under the coach while winning multiple titles.

The details of the reason behind the disagreement (if any) are yet to be known between the coach and captain, with just the speculations of possible reasons like selection of playing XIs, planning of the tactics for the match in Uppal.
Looking at MI's rather friendly and healthy team culture, it is also highly unlikely that we get to know much about the reasons for the altercation. At the scene of the incident, among the team members present were Karn Sharma and other support staff.

Despite the argument, things looked fine in MI's performance as they went on to rattle the SRH batting order and forced them to use the batting impact sub in the first innings of the match, showing no distress in the dressing room.
