New Delhi. The player who won you the match. If someone who was the player of the match in a historic win does not play the next match, it is a big blow for any team. New Zealand also entered the Mumbai Test with the same injury as Mitchell Santner could not play due to injury. However, New Zealand did not miss this special player till the end of the first day’s play. Mumbai-born Ajaz Patel has pushed India on the backfoot by showing a Santner game on the first day.

The third test match is being played between India and New Zealand in Mumbai. The New Zealand team has won the first series by winning the first two tests. he/she made a good start in the third test match also. At one time he/she had scored 187 runs for 5 wickets. Then it seemed that New Zealand would cross the score of 300 runs. Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar prevented New Zealand from doing this and took quick wickets and made them all out for 235 runs.

India also made a good start in response to this. Thanks to Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill, India had at one time scored 78 runs for 1 wicket. Now not more than 10-12 minutes were left in the day’s play. Indian fans were expecting that it would end the day’s play with the loss of just one wicket and then go for a big score the next day. But Ejaz Patel changed the game. Ajaz Patel is the same bowler who had taken 10 wickets in an innings in the Ahmedabad Test a year ago. his/her form can prove dangerous for India.

The remaining gap was filled by Virat Kohli’s run out. As soon as he/she was out, the score became 84 runs for 4 wickets. India lost these three wickets within 7 balls.
