Mumbai: Mumbai-born New Zealand left-arm spinner Ajaz Patel claimed all 10 Indian wickets in the second Test, becoming the third bowler in test cricket history to achieve the feat on Saturday.

Patel, a left-arm spinner, added to his tally of four wickets on an opening day to return figures of 10-119. India was all out for 325.

He is only the third bowler in 144 years of the history of Test cricket to take 10 wickets in an innings. The first two were Jim Laker and Anil Kumble.
