A Correct answer
Explanation

In Test cricket, Law 15 of the Laws of Cricket allows a captain to forfeit an innings. This means a captain can choose not to bat at the start of their innings, giving the opposition the opportunity to bat again. This is sometimes used as a tactical decision to set a target or when time is running out. The rule applies to both first and second innings.
