Ajaz Patel said helping New Zealand wrap up a 3-0 series sweep in India on Sunday was even more special than his spectacular outing at the Wankhede Stadium three years ago when the Mumbai-born spinner picked up 10 wickets in one innings.

Looking for a series sweep in India, New Zealand captain Tom Latham won the toss and decided to put his side in to bat in the third and final cricket test on Friday. New Zealand won the first two tests in Bengaluru and Pune by eight wickets and 113 runs respectively,

Ajaz Patel credited the visiting side’s adaptability across different playing conditions and believes that toss was a key difference between a historic triumph in India after a 2-0 loss in Sri Lanka

Ross Taylor said they didn't think of a 3-0 clean sweep over India in the Test series in their 'wildest dreams' as Tom Latham-led side completed a historic whitewash in Mumbai.
