Kanpur: Left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja, who tormented the New Zealand batsmen with his five-for, said it was Kane Williamson's dismissal by R Ashwin in the morning session which proved to be a game-changer for the hosts.
Ashwin bowled a peach of a delivery to clean bowl the Kiwi captain as India reduced the visitors from overnight 152 for one to 238 for five by lunch on day three of the first
Test at Green Park. "We knew that it is Kane who can really bat for long in their line-up.
The plan was to get him out. We know others can't bat for long hours. We got four wickets in the morning session and that was game-changing," Jadeja said at a press conference at the end of day's play.
