When Washington Sundar was picked over Kuldeep Yadav for India's second Test against New Zealand in Pune, a lot of experts were unhappy over the choice.
By the end of the New Zealand innings, however, there were no doubts that the move was perfect. Off-spinner Washington Sundar took seven wickets as India dismissed New Zealand for 259 on day one of the second Test in Pune on Thursday.
Washington repaid the faith shown in him by the team management with career-best figures in his fifth Test. New Zealand's last seven wickets fell for 62 runs.
He is the first Indian bowler to take a five-wicket haul in Tests in Pune. One of his deliveries has been dubbed as 'magic'.
