Durban: Captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni today rued a couple of bad decisions which went against his side in India's 10-wicket loss to South Africa in the second cricket Test here to lose the series 0-1, saying they were "at the receiving end" in the match.
"The first session was crucial, we did not start well, a couple of bad decisions, tough decisions, a couple of bad shots. We were at the receiving end," he said after India lost the final Test on the fifth and final day at the Kingsmead here.
South Africa chased down a small target of 58 without losing a wicket after India were all out for 223 in their second innings in the post-lunch session today.
Two decisions seemed to have gone against India, including that of key batsman Virat Kohli's dismissal. Kohli was adjudged out by the umpire but he apparently did not make contact with Dale Steyn's delivery and the ball seemed to have brushed his shoulder on its way to the keeper. Later, Zaheer Khan's dismissal was also debatable as the television footage showed the ball could have missed the leg stump.
