Third bowler in Test cricket
Patel was the only one to get wickets on the first day of the Mumbai Test. From the Indian team batting first, Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer had become victims of Patel on the very first day. Pujara and Kohli could not even open their account. Patel, who came to bowl on the second day, was in a different colour. Early in the day sent Wriddhiman Saha back to the pavilion, then Ravichandran Ashwin. Team India's score was not even 300 runs that centuryveer Mayank Agarwal also got caught in Patel's spin. Till now Patel had taken 7 wickets. He took the eighth wicket of Axar Patel. Then he also got the wicket of Jayant Yadav. Then as soon as Mohammad Siraj was dismissed, Patel was recorded in the pages of history.
