In this innings yes, but his career average of 16 is below par for an 8 who should ideally average closer to 20.Cummins showing he is a good enough #8 here.

He was pretty average first test with the ball tbhThis is the most toothless Axar has looked in his test career so far
I just can't shake off the feeling that we are clutching at straws in saying that 250 is a good score for Australia..No. This is still a bowling friendly wicket and very difficult for a new bat to play on, and will get worse as the match goes on. But easier than the last test. The odd ball definitely misbehaves.
India scoring 400 would need a couple of their bats playing exceptional knocks.
Wait until he plays outside the subcontinentThis is the most toothless Axar has looked in his test career so far
We'll see but this pitch looks like it could be way more to Cummins and Lyon's liking than the first one. There's some very nice bounce outside the right handers off stump which will suit their style of bowling.I just can't shake off the feeling that we are clutching at straws in saying that 250 is a good score for Australia..
Axar Patel is coming in at no.9 for crying out loud.
I'd say par. 4 spinners or not, I don't think it will be easy for them in India's 1st innings on days 2 & 3.They could get to 270+ which would be a fantastic score.
Only gets near the team outside the SC if both Jaddu and Anna are injuredWait until he plays outside the subcontinent
How though ? India made 400 in the first game and batted once, if anything India's batting line up has gotten stronger with Shreyas Iyer at no.5 , and there's only one seamer to worry about , Australia are banking on two rookie spinners to outbowl Ashwin and Jadeja ..Talk of winning is a long way off imoAustralia is dominating position now . anything above 250 and they are going to win this game
