Gautam Gambhir also got out initially. We lost the top two performers of the Test series in a way. But that is the way it is. Now I think we may lose him for the entire series. You never know," Dhoni told reporters."That's the way it goes in cricket. You can't really stop and think about the guys you will be missing in the series. Rather than that you will have to fill in that space. Because that is the only way your team can win," he added.Asked how was Sehwag recovering, Dhoni said "He (Sehwag) is still in the hotel. But I do not know exactly. It was quite bad yesterday. You will get to know," he said</blockquote>
