The first day of the Bengaluru Test was washed away by rain and on the second day, Team India collapsed for 46 runs, their lowest total on home soil. In such a situation, the question is whether a step taken by Rohit Sharma can change the history of 36 years. Because the chances of this are visible. And, if this happens, then this can prove to be an unforgettable Test match for head coach Gambhir. Now you must be wondering what is the step taken by Rohit Sharma. And, what is its connection with the history of 36 years?

What step did Rohit Sharma take?

The step taken by Team India's captain Rohit Sharma here means his decision to bat first after winning the toss. The result of that decision of the Indian captain was that the team collapsed at 46 runs. After the second day's play, Rohit Sharma admitted his mistake and said that he failed to read the pitch. He took the wrong decision after winning the toss.

Rohit's move can change the history of 36 years

There is no doubt that Rohit Sharma's decision to bat first after winning the toss was suicidal for Team India. It was like shooting himself in the foot. His same decision has now raised the hope of reversing the history of 36 years. Here, 36 years of history means New Zealand winning Test matches in India.

New Zealand last won a Test match on Indian soil 36 years ago i.e. in 1988. That match was played at Mumbai's Wankhede ground. After that, the Kiwi team is yearning to win a Test match in India. Now the way it has firmly gripped the Bengaluru Test, it seems that the 36-year-old history can be reversed due to the step taken by Rohit Sharma. Meaning, that New Zealand can win.

Gautam Gambhir cannot forget this test match again!

Now, firstly, a record was made of India getting bowled out for 46 runs in a Test match on its own soil. Now, on top of that, if New Zealand wins a Test match in India after 36 years, then everything that was not seen before will be seen happening under the coaching of head coach Gautam Gambhir. Obviously, if this happens, then the Bengaluru Test will be an unforgettable one in Gautam Gambhir's coaching career.

Anyway, Team India still has one innings left. There is still a lot of play left in the Bengaluru Test. And, the biggest thing is that cricket is a game of uncertainties. It is possible that Team India may save this Test match. But, according to what is seen in the latest equation, the chances of turning history are higher
