New Zealand's Left-arm spinner Ajaz Patel became only the third bowler in the history of Tests to bag all 10 wickets in an innings as Team India folded for 325 during the second session on day two of the second Test against New Zealand at Wankhede on Friday.

Resuming the day at 221 for four, India scored 64 runs in the morning session with the loss of two wickets. They added another 40 runs for four wickets after lunch to end their first innings at 325.

On Friday, some of his family members were cheering for him from the Garware Pavilion and this support is expected to grow over the weekend with as many as 20 of his cousins set to throng the Wankhede.
