On Tuesday, Myskina, who led Russia to their first Fed Cup title in 2004 and was instrumental in reaching the final this year, indicated she would be stepping down.
"I've won it twice, even if last time I won because Elena Dementieva helped a lot," Myskina told reporters after winning her first round match at the Filderstadt Grand Prix.
Russia beat France 3-2 in last month's final in Paris to retain their Fed Cup crown.
On Wednesday, after a second round win in Germany over compatrior Dinara Safina, she told reporters: "There was a misunderstanding with the translation because I didn't say that I'm not going to play at all.
"I won twice and I think the young players are playing pretty good right now, like Dinara, she's ready to play singles.
"I just want to take a step back a little bit and give (up) a place, but if I'm going to be invited that would be great."
Earlier, Russia's tennis federation president told Reuters anything Myskina had said about the Fed Cup had been greatly exaggerated by the press.
"Myskina has done it all for Russia, therefore she has earned the right to say no," said Shamil Tarpishchev, who also serves as Russia's Fed and Davis Cup captain.
"But I don't think it's proper to say that she quit the team for good. Myskina is the ultimate team player and if we ever needed her to play, I'm sure she would say yes."
Myskina was involved in a bitter public squabble with compatriot Maria Sharapova last year, accusing the world number one of being disrespectful to her.
