Updated on Aug 22, 2011 09:24 pm IST

Ending the speculation whether he was out or not, Indian batsman Rahul Dravid admitted on Sunday that he had nicked the ball on the penultimate day of the fourth and final Test against England at the Oval Cricket Ground in London. Dravid was given out by the third umpire Steve Davis when he pushed forward to spinner Graeme Swann and Alastair Cook claimed the catch at short-leg after the ball appeared to go from bat to pad. The decision created controversy, as there was no conclusive evidence provided by the technology Hot Spot.
