Cape Town: Unhappy over India's 2-1 Test series loss to South Africa, coach Greg Chappell said some tough decisions were on the cards and a few players would be under pressure to retain their places in the side.

Chappell said the debacle in the tour was difficult to digest and enough introspection was needed before looking towards future assignments.

"Looking at the tour as a whole, there are more questions than answers. Over the next week or so, when we get back to India and have a chance to digest what happened, discuss and debrief this one and look into the future, we are going to make some decisions on which direction we go and there will be a few guys under a bit of pressure, there is no doubt," he said after the third and final Test here yesterday.

Chappell acknowledged the concern on Virender Sehwag, who was a major disappointment throughout the series, but expressed his disappointment on other major batsmen's failure.

"He (Sehwag) is certainly a concern but I don't think he is our only batting concern at the moment. We are just not getting enough consistent runs, we seem to be losing wickets in batches, which is something you try and avoid when you are playing international cricket.

"The first Test win in South Africa by an Indian team, that in itself is to be enjoyed but the edge has been taken off by the disappointing batting of the last two Tests," he said.

About the final Test, which was under India's control for three days, Chappell said, "There weren't many gremlins on the wicket (in Newlands) on the last day and that made our batting all the more disappointing".
