New Zealand ace spinner Ajaz Patel is living his dream in the 2nd and final Test Match against India at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. He became the first-ever New Zealand spinner to bag a 5-wicket haul in the first innings of a Test match in India but now he has tallied five more in the innings to become only the third bowler in history to pick all 10 wickets in an innings. With this feat, Ajaz Patel scripted his name in the history books and his name will be taken with the likes of Jim Laker and Anil Kumble. The Mumbai-born Kiwi spinner has decimated the Indian batting line-up as the Men in Blue looked clueless against him.
