Morris said that he would be taking up a coaching role with South African franchise Titans.
"The moment we heard that, when players are testing positive, inside the bubble, then everyone starts asking questions. The alarm bells definitely started going off for all of us," said the Rajasthan Royals all-rounder.
The Rajasthan Royals skipper chose to forgo the easier and relatively safer option of taking a single and leaving it to Morris to try his luck with the last ball.
Morris, who hit an unbeaten 18-ball 36 laden with four sixes to guide Royals home, said he had no regrets about being denied strike in the opening match against Punjab Kings.
The Rajasthan Royals captain said that he was praying Morris will get a six in the final over against Delhi Capitals.
Sanju's sensational 63-ball 119 in his maiden outing as Rajasthan Royals captain was not enough as his team fell short by four runs to Punjab Kings.
Sanju, who was handed the reins of the Japiur-based team in January, has recuperated from a knee injury which he suffered during the Vijay Hazare Trophy.
South African all-rounder Chris Morris fetched a whopping Rs 16.25 crore to become the biggest ever buy in IPL history.
Always considered the batsmen's game, power hitters in different franchises not only entertain the fans to the hilt, but also guide their respective teams to massive totals.
Morris's exclusion as an all-rounder is a surprise given his form in the Indian Premier League and his death-bowling ability, but the selectors have instead opted for Dwaine Pretorius and Andile Phehlukwayo.
