We found ourselves in a situation where we got bowled out for 46 runs. As a captain, it definitely hurts to see that number,” he said.
“So, clearly a misjudgement of the pitch. I did not read the pitch well enough and we sit in this situation. Though in 365 days, you will make two or three bad calls. That is absolutely fine, I guess,” he added.
