Team collapsed on 46 and captain Rohit Sharma was beating his head over his own decision, said – very sad…

Rohit Sharma IND vs NZ: The second day of the Bengaluru Test became the darkest day in the history of Indian cricket. Team India, who came to bat first after winning the toss, was all out after scoring only 46 runs. Neither Rohit walked, nor Kohli's bat spoke and neither Pant-Jadeja could save the team's honour. The situation was such that five batsmen returned to the pavilion without opening their account. With great difficulty two batsmen of the team could cross the double figures. Captain Rohit Sharma is now regretting his own decision in the press conference after the end of the day's play. Rohit says that choosing to bat first after winning the toss was a wrong decision and he is very saddened by the plight of the batting order.

Rohit regretted the decision

Team India is completely on the backfoot in the Bengaluru Test. New Zealand has taken a lead of 134 runs on the basis of first innings and the team still has 7 wickets in hand. Indian captain Rohit admitted that he made a huge mistake in understanding the pitch and his decision cost the team dearly. Rohit said in the press conference, 'I am sad to see the score of 46 runs as captain, because it was my decision to bat first.' However, Hittman said one or two wrong decisions can happen in a year.

Rohit Sharma himself came out to the PC and accepted his wrong call during the toss. 👏👌

Team India fell on the lowest score

In the history of Test cricket, the Indian team was all out on its own soil on the lowest score. Team India's batting order fell apart like a pack of cards. Captain Rohit Sharma scored 2 runs and was clean bowled by Tim Southee, after which it seemed as if the batsmen took the path of 'Tu Chal Main Aaya'. Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Sarfaraz Khan could not even open their accounts. The maximum innings of 20 runs for the team came from the bat of Rishabh Pant. The Indian team narrowly escaped being all out at less than 36 runs, its lowest score in Tests. This is the first time in 92 years that the entire Indian team was limited to less than 50 runs.
