Everything continued as it is on day 3 morning - India dominating the test match and Ajaz Patel picking wickets here at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
Resuming the day at 69/0, Mayank Agarwal and Cheteshwar Pujara looked solid as they added 107 for the opening wicket. Mayank scored 62 runs before Ajaz got him caught at the boundary. 4 overs later, Ajaz removed Pujara as well for 47.
New Zealand had already employed the bodyline-short ball tactic against the Indian batters. Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli played the pacers well and didn't fall to the tactics. However, Ajaz continued to get turn and bounce that troubled the batters.
