To emphasize why he remains skeptical about the DRS, Dhoni pointed to Chesteshwar Pujara's dismissal in the match.
He said the ball clipped Pujara's inner thigh, but it showed that it hit the stumps. The ball went to the wicketkeeper and it didn't touch the bails at all.
That, he said, showed how accurate the DRS is.
