Australia's Nathan Lyon conjured up a spin masterclass in the third test against India on Thursday and his figures of eight for 64 were even more special coming against arguably the best players of spin bowling.
Australia, having bowled out India for 109 and 163, will need 76 runs on Friday to secure victory and Lyon would be the obvious choice for the player-of-the-match award should they achieve it. With Australia trailing 2-0 in the four-test series and conditions offering little to the quicks, Lyon was tasked with leading their attack.
Lyon bowled 23.3 of Australia's total 60.3 overs against Indian batsmen known for their prowess against spin bowling and yet came up trumps though he developed cramp towards the end and needed medical attention to keep going.
