Under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy, India witnessed their first whitewash at home as the Tom Latham-led New Zealand team outclassed the hosts in the third and final Test at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday. Rohit admitted he was not at his best while leading the team and with his shot selection.   

“I made a decision about batting first on that Bangalore pitch [in the first Test], which was not right. I made certain tactical errors. Those decisions didn’t go my way. You obviously take chances with those decisions. Sometimes it comes off, sometimes it doesn’t. And this time around it didn’t come off. I was not at my best in terms of leadership and that probably cost us the series,” Rohit said during the post-match press conference.
