"I forgot for one minute because there was a lot of talk within the team group on what we wanted to do"- Rohit Sharma at the toss

Speaking after winning the toss, Indian captain Rohit Sharma opened up that he momentarily forgot what he wanted to choose.

He emphasized that challenging themselves in tough situations remains the primary goal and revealed that they would bowl first, saying:

"I forgot for one minute because there was a lot of talk within the team group on what we wanted to do. At the end of the day we want to challenge ourselves under difficult conditions as well. For a minute I forgot but we want to bowl first. It was a good test for us. I knew once the light comes on, the wicket gets better to bat on."

He added:

"We came here yesterday. There was a bit of dew but again, what we get to hear from the curators are that they're trying to negate the dew and it doesn't come on game days. We want to do what we want to do as a team. We want to bowl here and challenge ourselves again."

After 13 overs, New Zealand are struggling at 28/5 following a top-order collapse.
