“It is obviously quite evenly poised at the moment with India still having six wickets in hand. But we have done well to get inroads into their line-up. The reality of Test cricket is if you put the ball in good areas for long periods of time, you will see rewards,” Patel added.

Cricket News: Mumbai For the second Test, Ajaz Patel returned to his hometown and put in a special performance to remember the event.
“Today was my day, and I am really fortunate to be sitting here with four wickets, and I am fairly delighted about it, especially since I am at my hometown of Wankhede,” Ajaz Patel said.
“Tomorrow is a new day, and we will begin again. It’s all about bowling in groups. As a spinner, you obviously prefer bowling with velocity and bounce, and it provides turn right away. The game plan for tomorrow is quite straightforward. Attempt to limit them as much as possible. Bowl a lot of high-quality balls,” Patel added.
