Lyon picks 8 wickets to send India crashing for 189

India 189-all out (71.2 ovs) vs Aus | Scorecard

Lyon ends India's innings as lastman Ishant is caught at short leg first ball as the hosts were bundled out for a paltry 189 in 71.2 innings.

Sensational bowling from the Australian off-spinner who finishes with career-best magical figures of eight for 50 in 22.2 overs.

Another disappointing effort by the Indian batsmen as except for Rahul, who made 90, no other batsman showed the willingness to apply himself.

Karun (26) was the only other batsman to cross the 20-run mark as the Indian batting failed to live up to expectations for the third successive innings.

Lyon bowled in the right areas and took advantage of the bounce while getting a lot of spin. The inclusion of the extra batsmen hardly helped the Indians as the top order once again disappointed.

The pitch is not easy for batting but India would have hoped to atleast get around the 250-run mark after electing to bat first.
