Yet again Lyon has done a brilliant job for his team. All the talk was about the fast men and he bags 5 for 67. Australia lead by 43 runs and now precious will that be? Lyon teams the Australians off, holding the ball aloft. The key wicket, as so often, was Virat Kohli who fell to Cummins. That opened things up for Australia. Overall the last six wickets fell for 60 and the last five for 32. Advantage Australia and India will need early inroads with the new ball before tea. Back with you in five minutes
