Barring one session in Delhi, Australia have been outstanding: Maxwell

Glenn Maxwell feels Australia were "outstanding" in the first two Tests against India barring the one self-destructing session in Delhi on day three.

Australia lost nine wickets for 52 runs in their second innings to squander the slight advantage they had at the start of day three.

"I think they’ve showed a lot of fight. Bar that one session I thought they were outstanding. It’s bloody difficult over there - it’s not an easy place to play, it’s so foreign for us.

"But I feel like, apart from a couple of little moments, we’ve been in the fight, we’ve been matching India at different times and they’ve shown a lot of fight," he was quoted as saying by the Sydney Morning Herald.

Among the current lot, Maxwell is the only one to have scored a Test century in India alongside Steve Smith.
