27 wickets from 3 Tests including 4 five-wicket haul, Axar Patel couldn't have asked for a more fitting start to his Test career.

27 wickets from 3 Tests including 4 five-wicket haul, Axar&nbsp;Patel couldn't have asked for a more fitting start to his Test career. The all-rounder spun his web of destruction in such a way that English batsmen looked clueless for&nbsp;answers. Axar&nbsp;in fact now has the 2nd most 5-wicket-hauls in debut Test series, just 1 less than Australia's Rodney Hogg. Moreover, he now holds the record for the most number of 5-fers&nbsp;amongst Indians&nbsp;after first 3 Tests. Interestingly, the only Test England won on their tour to India was the one which didn't feature Axar&nbsp;and since then he has made the 3 Lions dance to the tune of his bowling.&nbsp;
