ICC [ Images ] CEO Haroon Lorgat [ Images ] on Monday played down the toss controversy during the India [ Images ]-Sri Lanka World Cup final, when the coin had to flipped twice by India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni [ Images ], following a confusion.

"I'm not sure whether there was a huge controversy around that. I know there was a suggestion that the match referee (Jeff Crowe) did not hear the call (made by Lanka skipper Kumar Sangakkara [ Images ]) and they agreed to re-toss. That's what normally happens," he said at a press conference in Mumbai [ Images ].

Sangakkara won the toss and elected to bat to post 274/6 which was chased down successfully by India to win the coveted title after 28 years.

Lorgat defended the decision to appoint Crowe, who officiated in the previous final between Australia [ Images ] and Lanka in Barbados that finished in darkness in a farcical manner, to do the job at the all important final.

"We review all the officials, all the component parts of the events, produce a full report whatever learnings were, we take note of it in the next event," he said.
