Australia are 2-0 lead in the series. They played really good cricket and in their previous game, they won by 43 on 5th day of the 2nd test match.
Nathan Lyon said, “I knew the risk of batting, but I’d do anything for my team. If it was tomorrow, I’d do it again, and again, and again for my country”.
This shows how well he is determined for his team and is ready to give his best for the team. He earns praises from the fans and the cricket experts.
On Day 4 of the second Ashes Test at Lord's, Nathan Lyon batted with an injury.
