New Delhi. Former Team India batsman VVS Laxman has broken his silence regarding the toss statement after Rohit Sharma's shameful performance in the first innings. National Cricket Academy chief Laxman praised Rohit and said that after winning the toss, Rohit admitted that he had taken a wrong decision by choosing to bat first. Rohit won the toss and decided to bat first but the Indian team was out on its lowest score of 46 runs at home.

Rohit Sharma himself, who came to the press conference after the end of the second day's play, admitted that he made a mistake in assessing the pitch of M Chinnaswamy Stadium. He also said that all the decisions of the captain cannot always be right. VVS Laxman said, 'It is not possible for the captain to always take the right decisions. We won the toss and chose to bat but we were out for 46 runs. Laxman said, 'Who went to the press conference? Rohit Sharma only. He admitted that he made a mistake in reading the wicket. Captains take responsibility for their decisions.

'It is not necessary that the decision is right every time'
According to Laxman, 'It is not necessary that the decision is right every time. But today he takes responsibility and faces criticism when the team does not do well. If the team does well then you send the player who has performed well. Great captains also give the best performance and Rohit Sharma is an example of this. He has done excellent captaincy. He told his players that this is how our team should play and he has been playing selfless innings. That in turn could have affected his performance but he says he stands with every player who plays the way he wants the team to play.

Team India made a comeback
Laxman said that he is confident that the Indian team will make a comeback in the second test. In the Bangalore Test, visiting New Zealand took a big lead in the first innings. On the basis of the partnership of 136 runs in 163 balls for the third wicket between Sarfaraz Khan (70 not out) and Virat Kohli (70), India made a strong comeback on the third day by reaching 231 runs for 3 wickets in its second innings. Earlier, New Zealand scored 402 runs in the first innings. Rachin Ravindra played an innings of 134 runs in 157 balls with the help of 13 fours and four sixes. He dominated the match with Tim Southee (65) by making a partnership of 137 runs for the eighth wicket.
