i'm referring to the drawn test when he didn't give his team enough time to bowl out NZ, everyone **** on him. I know they are different situations
Did they? Ahead in the series, battling back from a first-innings deficit...I doubt CWers were bagging his declaration there anyway, I think the priority in that situation was and should always be to all but bat NZ out of the game.

People on Facebook =/ people with any form of cricketing nous.

He got **** for his declarations at Brisbane and Perth first innings too. I doubt they really affected the result though.

haha and I was all prepared to keep on arguing this petty point about the underlying logic of your initial post, on a subject I hardly care about. What am I doing with my life.

It's weird that Lyon's bowling average isn't actually better than what it was 1-3 years ago. Definitely feels like he's improved and become more appreciated.

The UAE tour would hurt there. Since then his average is under 30.

Watching it on a streaming site and you can hear commentators chatting between overs. Ian Cappel said "it was a pretty bloody impressive 8. 4 of them missed the stumps by that much".

Assumed they were just being soft complaining about the cold but it seems it's basically the same temperature as it is London at the moment :-O
