IND vs NZ: Rohit took ownership of decision as a leader - VVS Laxman

Quick Summary:

Former India cricketer and NCA head VVS Laxman on Friday praised Rohit Sharma for taking ownership of the wrong call at the toss in the first Test against New Zealand, saying that he does a "phenomenal job" in leading by example.

Rohit's decision to bat first in the opening Test backfired horribly as India were shot out for a mere 46 inside 32 overs, recording their third lowest total in 593 Tests and lowest-ever in 293 matches on home soil.

We won the toss and we elected to bat first and it was counterproductive (because) we were bowled out for 46," Laxman told a gathering at the Security Now 2024 conference by Seclore here.
