Who is the only australian test batsman to play an innings, but not have an average? i.e he played a single innings, but was not dismissed
what was his name, and how many runs did he make?

That one's easy.
Stuart Law from memory - and it was 54 (obviously not out)
That was in Perth, which was also when Ricky Ponting was out LBW for 96 on debut .. and it was NOT out. (I felt sick watching that)
