About Ajaz Patel

Another Patel who is playing for New Zealand. Ajaz follows in the footsteps of Dipak Patel and Jeetan Patel - a spinner. The Mumbai born lad shifted to New Zealand very early on and began his career with Auckland, but it was Central Districts who gave the left-arm spinner a chance to showcase his skills.

Ajaz played for Auckland A without much luck and when he moved to Central Districts, he was soon fast tracked into first class cricket - making his debut in 2012. He made his T20 debut also in the same year but had to wait to play 50-over cricket for three more years.

However, it was red-ball cricket that Ajaz impressed everyone in. He kept picking wickets at consistent basis but found it hard to break into the New Zealand squad, who already had Mitchell Santner and Ish Sodhi in the ranks. The former was a major roadblock as he gave more with the bat compared to Ajaz.
