Ijaz played an important role in the Kiwi team’s historic 3-0 Test series win over India. This statement of Kaif has now suddenly come into limelight. In this match played at Wankhede Stadium, Ajaz Patel performed brilliantly and continued his excellent record. The New Zealand team became the first team to achieve a whitewash in a Test series of three or more matches on Indian soil. The feat was achieved largely thanks to his spin bowling, with Patel becoming the team’s leading wicket-taker in the series with 15 wickets, including 11 at the Wankhede Stadium alone. However, in a video shared on social media, Mohammad Kaif dismissed Patel’s achievements. Mohammad Kaif gave a surprising statement regarding Ejaz Patel In the video shared on his X account, Mohammad Kaif said, “Ajaz Patel did not bowl well. If you look at the pitch map, he bowled two full-toss, two short balls and two length deliveries, but still managed to take wickets. Bowlers like Ajaz Patel will be found in every local club.” Ajaz Patel has taken 23 wickets in two matches in Mumbai. However, till date he has not played even a test match on New Zealand soil. Kaif further said about Glenn Phillips, “Glenn Phillips is a part-timer and he does not know how to bowl good balls. We lost to part-timers, not quality spinners. People should say that Ajaz Patel has taken 22 wickets at Wankhede Stadium. He could not even land the ball properly. Ajaz Patel bowled only two good balls in an over and took wickets. The defeat in the final test is shameful. There were no good bowlers in the New Zealand team in the Mumbai Test. Kaif only praised Mitchell Santner, who took 11 wickets in Pune. Kaif said, “Santner bowled well. The bowling he bowled in Pune was a classic Test match performance.”
