9 Indian Batters have played 100+ tests. Here's the percentage of tests they've played with a match average of less than 30:
Pujara 53.9%
Kohli 53.7
Vengsarkar 31.0
Gavaskar 29.6
Ganguly 29.2
Laxman 27.6
Dravid 27.6
Tendulkar 27.5
Sehwag 22.3
In the last few years, many have remarked on how tough conditions have been on our current batch of batters and this validates that. The difference between the top 2 and the rest is staggering. Not the perfect method but something that puts things in context to some degree imo.
