New Zealand can make a comeback: Jeetan

New Zealand spinner Jeetan Patel believes his team is capable of making a comeback in the first Test against India.

“We have to come back tomorrow (Saturday) and face up to the music and fight for what we are known,” he told reporters on the second day of the Test as the visitors — at five for 106 in reply to India’s 438 — face a likely follow-on.

“Tomorrow is a good chance to get back and understand what the situation is. If things go right, we move closer to get back into the game,” he said.u00a0
