Rohit Sharma again stood with KL Rahul, said this even after winning the toss and batting first
Rohit Sharma PC: Indian team captain Rohit Sharma seems to be completely standing with KL Rahul. Whether runs are scored with Rahul’s bat or not, in a tied match Rahul may drop a catch coming straight, but it does not matter. Not only this, Rohit probably has no regrets even on the wrong decision of batting after winning the toss against New Zealand today. We are saying this because when the day’s play ended in the first Test against New Zealand being played in Bengaluru, Rohit Sharma said similar things as soon as he met the media.
KL Rahul will continue to get chances in Tests at number six only.
Let’s talk about KL Rahul first. Because even though the entire team including Rohit Sharma himself was out cheaply in the first innings of the first Test against New Zealand, the most questions are being raised on KL Rahul. His bat has not been scoring runs for a long time, yet he is playing for Team India. Now Rohit Sharma has said a big thing about KL Rahul. Rohit says that he does not want to tinker too much with KL’s batting numbers. Rohit told that Rahul has got the place at number 6, so he should be given a chance there. Rohit said that it is the same with Sarfaraz Khan. Answering the question why Virat Kohli was sent to bat at number three today, Rohit said that Virat is the person who wanted to take responsibility. This is a good sign for the team. That is, Rohit said that even if Virat Kohli’s numbers were not very good while batting at the third position, but Kohli himself came and said that he will bat at this number.
Rohit Sharma had decided to bat first after winning the toss.
Meanwhile, questions were raised on his decision as to why Rohit decided to bat first after winning the toss. Did they not understand the pitch properly? On this, Rohit bluntly said that as a captain, it is painful to see the entire team getting out for 46 runs. But the decision to bat first after winning the toss was his own. Taking his point forward, he said that one or two wrong decisions are taken in a year, this is normal. That means, overall, Rohit does not seem to regret his mistake.
New Zealand got a lead of 134 runs in the first test
It would be interesting to say that when Team India was batting first in Bengaluru, it seemed that this pitch was very difficult for batting. But when the New Zealand batsmen landed there, nothing like this was visible. The team may have lost some wickets, but despite this, New Zealand has still taken a lead of 134 runs over Team India. By the end of the day’s play, New Zealand had scored 180 runs for three wickets in their first innings. Now it remains to be seen what happens when the New Zealand team comes out to bat on Friday. However, Team India has only one way to make a comeback in this match, that is to somehow get New Zealand out as soon as possible and bat better in the second innings. At this moment Team India seems to be on the back foot.
