Specialist bowler in bowling better than 20 year old batting allrounder shocker.

India need James Franklin.

I'm pretty sure it's the ends ay. As soon as Arnel switched to this end his pace went up by a good 4-5K. Southee was bowling at this end yesterday and he was up around 135-138 for most of his spell.
Yep saw that - half tracker, foot outside off, creamed for four. Top stuff.

29 degrees in India and well into the middle of the third day too.

They've already got a player in this team that manages to average 20 with the bat and 40 with the ball, they don't need another one

Yup. Arnel and Southee were bowling at the same time and Arnel was 3-4kph faster, although to me Southee looked visibly quicker.

The stump cam didn't showed his foot was stuck on the line.

None of the angles including stump cam showed any part of the line behind his foot. htf could you give it out.

Right now I am trying to decide if he is a batting allrounder or a batsman who bowls part time.

Somewhere in between at this stage IMO, but his batting has developed to Test standard an un-naturally early stage of his career. His bowling will probably just take a bit of time to catch up. There's definitely a lot to work with IMO.
Either way, saying Patel's a better bowler isn't really a questionable call.. I think everyone knew that already.
