MUMBAI: Soaking in an emotional return to a venue in which he created history three years ago by becoming only the third bowler to claim the 'perfect 10' , New Zealand's left-arm spinner Ajaz Patel, who hails from Jogeshwari in Mumbai and still has many relatives here, confessed that he didn't even imagine coming back to the Wankhede Stadium to play a Test again.
"Being back in Mumbai is always quite special and it's a place I call home as well. Having the opportunity to play out here again is quite special. After my 10-wicket haul, I wasn't sure whether I'd get another opportunity to play here throughout my career," the 36-year-old said, sporting a wide smile, during a media interaction at the Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday.
