India Today
New Zealand left-arm spinner Ajaz Patel bagged all 10 wickets in India's first innings on Day 2 of the second and final Test in Mumbai, where the 33-year-old was born.
Australia white-ball captain Aaron Finch on Saturday was one of the first cricketers to congratulate Ajaz Patel for picking a 10-wicket haul during the second Test against India in Mumbai. Brilliant from Ajaz Patel. One of the best bowling performances by a visiting spinner in India. 6 out of six wkts so far. Bowled in the right areas on a helpful pitch. #NZvIND Are you watching @anilkumble1074 bhai?
