Ajaz Patel said helping New Zealand wrap up a 3-0 series sweep in India on Sunday was even more special than his spectacular outing at the Wankhede Stadium three years ago when the Mumbai-born spinner picked up 10 wickets in one innings.
"To win in India is incredible but to deliver a clean sweep is remarkable ... has to be the greatest ever test series victory ... India now have a group of batters that struggle like most teams against spin," said former England captain Michael Vaughan.
After stunning victories in Bengaluru and Pune, the Black Caps won the third Test in Mumbai by 25 runs to become the first team to whitewash India at home in a series featuring three or more matches.
Tom Latham's New Zealand completed a 3-0 Test sweep of India after the tourists won the third match by 25 runs in Mumbai on Sunday.
The hosts are seeking to avoid being swept 3-0 after New Zealand won the first two Tests to register their first Test series triumph in India.
Jadeja told reporters that "everything happened in 10 minutes", and the team "did not get time to react".
The hosts trailed New Zealand by 149 runs at the close of a fast-paced day one at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium, where the pitch has offered turn to the spinners.
Former New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson will miss the third Test against India starting in Mumbai on Friday in the hope that his groin strain clears up in time to face England next month, New Zealand Cricket said on Tuesday.
"It's an immensely proud moment for this group. Coming off the back of a Sri Lanka series where we didn't get the results we wanted, to come here and play the style of cricket that we did... immensely proud," Latham said.
