Ajaz Patel’s (Aaj Samaj) New Record, Sports Desk: The Indian tour of New Zealand ended with the Mumbai Test. Team Kiwi’s performance on this tour was charismatic. At the start of the tour, the New Zealand team would never have thought they could perform so well without their experienced player Kane Williamson. The less experienced New Zealand team, showing unity and vitality, not only quickly adapted to the conditions but also swept away the host team, who looked much better than them, by defeating them 3-0 at their own home for the first time. . .
If anyone impressed New Zealand the most in this performance, it was their spin bowling. While Mitchell Santner bothered the Indian batsmen a lot in the first two Test matches, Ajaz Patel did the same in the Mumbai Test. In the absence of his senior partner, Ajaz Patel not only took charge of the spin bowling but also brought the Indian batsmen to their knees. Due to which the New Zealand team managed to win by 25 runs in a low scoring match. Ajaz Patel took a total of 11 wickets in the two innings of the Test, for which he was also named Player of the Match.
