"In the middle overs, our batsmen tried their best to get going, but we couldn't convert the good start. Virat (Kohli) was the only one who could score but it was a little difficult for him also initially.


We could have got those 10-15 runs, but cricket is always about those extra runs," Dhoni said after the six-wicket defeat.
