IND v NZ, 1st Test: Why Was Ajaz Patel Not Allowed To Bowl Outside Leg Stump?

By Sahil Mathur November 25, 2021 • 16:33 PM View: 2634

Day 1 of the first test match between India and New Zealand hasn't been a spinners' paradise as it was expected to be. The Kiwis played three spinners on this track but have so far struggled to pick wickets.

Ajaz Patel, in particular, hasn't been as effective as he would have hoped bowling in left-arm spin in India. Having bowled more than 20 overs in a day without much impact, Ajaz tried to do something different to keep the run-scoring in check against a well-set Shreyas Iyer and Ravindra Jadeja.
