[Devadwal]

India can easily bundled out under 280 .

 

[street cricketer]

Oohh..Are we gonna see a Kumble this test?

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Wow 6 out of 6 for mumbai patel...terrific bowling

 

[MP2011]

Good batting by Axar so far. He possesses a decent batting technique.

Pujara should hang his head in shame.

 

[MP2011]

A fierce square cut from Axar.

 

[MP2011]

Despite the obvious turn on surface, bounce is still true which is a good thing.

If a curator needs to be rewarded for his efforts then Mumbai curator is the one who should be rewarded.

 

[Ab Fan]

Is this pitch gonna turn square when NZ are batting?

Kanpur was a terrific pitch. Enough for pacers also and good batsman can score runs.

 

[U$ofA]

If Ajaz can turn the ball like he is and take six, I am sure Ashwin is chomping to get on.

Never implied it was a bad pitch, rather which pitch has truer bounce.

 

[MP2011]

I'm sure he is especially after the way he was made to look like a buffoon on that magic delivery from Ajaz.

 

[U$ofA]

Nobody seems to care about this ongoing Test series in India. At least based on the whenever I have tuned in. Lackluster crowd during the first test and pretty much nobody showing up for the second test so far.

Should India be added to the rest of non Big3 fans who could not care less about test matches?

Test cricket is not popular enough in SC

 

[MP2011]

100 up for Ajaz.

 

[Ab Fan]

New Zealand are just not good enough for these conditions. They beat Pak in UAE but that team was going through transition.

Their strength remains their pace attack.

 

[street cricketer]

Oohh..Are we gonna see a Kumble this test?

It's happeninggg!!!

 

[MP2011]

300 up.

 

[RamLakhan]

Axar Patel is eying on Jadeja's spot! He already has more impact with the ball, and if he can bat decently he can probably bat at No.7 (after Pant) at least in India!

 

[MP2011]

Great batting by Axar.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

On of the great bowling performances!. NZ need to restrict below 350 to at least save the match

Oh they've missed another pad bat!

 

[MP2011]

Axar hits his first test 50.

 

[Thanos]

It looked out in real time as well. But neither umpire was interested nor NZ reviewed. (Ajaz to Jayant)

 

[Thanos]

It's happeninggg!!!

Yes. But I've feeling Somerville will take a wicket out of nowhere.

 

[ethan hunt]

Why didn't newzealand pick Mitchell santner.
The way Indians struggle vs him in limited overs, the bloke could have gotten a nice 15 wicket haul in the two test matches.

The numbers of home bullies we have is massive indeed

Bowling stats or batting stats, you just filter out the home stats and things just don't look as good.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

This is spectacular

 

[MP2011]

Patel gets Patel, 8-for for Ajaz.

 

[RamLakhan]

Hence it is so good to have an "Australian Tests" bully like Pant, but certain people are not happy about that also!

 

[street cricketer]

Hahaha, it IS happening...)

 

[RamLakhan]

OK he can have his 10'fer and then India can win this match!

 

[Mesozoic]

Averages 50+ in India. And he has only gotten worse as a red ball bowler since then. Test cricket is a different ball game altogether. Literally..

 

[MP2011]

Another cry baby whom one should not take seriously.

 

[ethan hunt]

Vs a very different Indian side i assume.
He is the sort of bowler I expect to do well on these pitches. A bit like axar Patel.

 

[RamLakhan]

Why is Washinton Sunder not playing in place of Jayant Yadav?

 

[MP2011]

What would have someone like Akram or a Sanga done in these circumstances?

They'd have tried their utmost to deny Ajaz all 10 wickets in the innings.

Hope we don't do anything as petty.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Gone!! Rip it in for the tenth

 

[MP2011]

Ajaz gets his 9th.

 

[Ab Fan]

9th for Ajaz Patel.

 

[street cricketer]

Only one more needed!

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

We seem to be helping him. Awful from Jayant

 

[Devadwal]

Nine wickets for ajaz patel .

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Only one more needed!

Mumbai is a city of dreams.
It’s coming home for Ajaz Patel. We can appropriate him

 

[street cricketer]

Mumbai crowd chanting "We want 10..We want 10.." for the Mumbai lad..

 

[MP2011]

We seem to be helping him. Awful from Jayant

That was awful from Jayant, no doubt. But we should not deliberately deny him 10 wickets in an innings by blindly slogging against other bowlers.

 

[RamLakhan]

It is unfair to see spinners from Indian descent helping NZ (Deepak Patel in 1992 world cup too) Also Monty Panesar helping England win their series in India...

 

[MP2011]

And he gets all 10!

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Done. Congratulations Patel bhai.

 

[MP2011]

History!

Ajaz becomes the third bowler in Test cricket to take all ten. Ajaz Patel has joined Jim Laker and Anil Kumble.

 

[street cricketer]

He gets it!!

What a performance from Ajaz!

 

[SpiritOf1903]

: Brilliant. Ashwin with a face like thunder

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

That was awful from Jayant, no doubt. But we should not deliberately deny him 10 wickets in an innings by blindly slogging against other bowlers.

Lol no need. We have big hearts

 

[MP2011]

Great effort that from Ajaz!

 

[JibranAnsari]

Congratulations to ajaz patel.

And india has enough score for NZs two innings.

 

[street cricketer]

Must be the stuff of dreams for Ajaz..Getting a 10fer in his home town. Getting roundly applauded as well.

 

[Thanos]

Brilliant.
What a match for Patel.

 

[Ab Fan]

Great to see Mumbai crowd giving Ajaz appreciation as if an Indian cricketer has achieved.

 

[cric_man]

Take a bow Ajaz Patel. Heroic effort. Fairytale welcome back to Mumbai for him.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

: Brilliant. Ashwin with a face like thunder

Look at his cry face.
He must crying in bathroom.

 

[raashidkhan89079]

He has a chance to create one more history by taking more wickets in 2nd innings and be the bowler with the most wickets in a test match.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Why is Washinton Sunder not playing in place of Jayant Yadav?

He jut recovered from injury.
Playing domestic cricket

 

[sindhiboy]

Incredible performance from ajaz.

 

[Mesozoic]

Vs a very different Indian side i assume.
He is the sort of bowler I expect to do well on these pitches. A bit like axar Patel.

Not really. Kohli, Pujara, Rahane, Saha, Jadeja all played in that series.

 

[ethan hunt]

This would have gotten really ugly for india if nz had managed to win the toss here.

Coulda woulda..

 

[raashidkhan89079]

No sir. Usually a team who bats 2nd in 1st innings mostly win matches in mumbai by scoring more runs than the other team

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

No sir. Usually a team who bats 2nd in 1st innings mostly win matches in mumbai by scoring more runs than the other team

But they are without Kane Williamson.

 

[raashidkhan89079]

Ashwin looking focused to take some hauls here.
But i think this pitch is tailor made for left arms spinners.
Axar will definitely have a good match but not as good as ajaz.

 

[raashidkhan89079]

But they are without Kane Williamson.

If i remember correctly
In first innings it was opening partnership that contributed more .
Kane williamson is not much needed in these conditions

 

[Devadwal]

But they are without Kane Williamson.

What is Williamson record in india ?

 

[Cover Drive Six]

But they are without Kane Williamson.

Kane is not a big player in Asia.
His average is 34.
He failed in first match.
India also missing Rohit, KL, Bumraah, Pant and Jaddu.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

What is Williamson record in india ?

Doesn't mean it can't get better. What was Kohli's record in England few years ago? Even Pant has a terrible record in NZ and West Indies.

 

[MP2011]

Young gone early, Siraj gets him.

 

[raashidkhan89079]

Kane is not a big player in Asia.
His average is 34.
He failed in first match.
India also missing Rohit, KL, Bumraah, Pant and Jaddu.

Credit where its due
This is india a vs newzealand (without williamson)
I would say equal competition

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Can't believe choker took the catch.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Kane is not a big player in Asia.
His average is 34.

India also missing Rohit, KL, Bumraah, Pant and Jaddu.

So Kane can't improve his record in Asia? It seems you guys have different logics for different players lol.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

So Kane can't improve his record in Asia? It seems you guys have different logics for different players lol.

Same like your logic for Pant and others.

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

But they are without Kane Williamson.

Are we playing our first choice team?
We are missing 5 players, aren't we?
Nz A vs Ind C

 

[MP2011]

Latham gone too, Siraj takes his second.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Siraj you beauty.
