***Official*** Australia in Bangladesh 2017

What a year Lyon has had so far. And in conditions here he's been pasted in the last. Glad SOK got a couple of piles. Not easy coming into a tst match completely cold.

Exactly. Yet some were calling for Nevill to do the same despite coming in even colder.

this can't be happening

 

[Victor Ian]

relax - fate is deeming that Lyon hit the winning runs. That is all.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

One more wicket and officially into tail

 

[MW1304]

This sort of thing happens all the time in low chases. You'll be fine.

 

[harsh.ag]

Come on, one more!

Such a frustrating and disappointing test

True funny everytime

 

[Victor Ian]

If another wicket falls I hope they send in Lyon as night watchman.

So who is Man of the Match. I'm going for Lyon but they always seem to favour Batsmen so it will probably be Warner

Well done to Australia for the strong comeback. This suggests a strong 3-1 showing in India next time around.

Course it'll be Lyon.

Face value result aside, I'm actually pretty pleased with the way we've played in this series. Have unquestionably improved miles and miles in tough conditions/situations since last year.

Lyon was obviously fantastic but Warner was perhaps even more pivotal. Need runs on the board.

Mate he took 13 wickets, he's man of the match.

Lyon was obviously fantastic but Warner was perhaps even more pivotal. Need runs on the board.

Lyon took 65% of Australia's wickets, Warner scored like 25% of Australia's runs. If you take Warner out Aus probably make a much lower first innings score, but if you take Lyon out Bangers could have made 400+ in both innings.

Lyon had a much bigger impact

Sure, but Warner was more pivotal. Could have won with other spinners (with more difficulty, of course), couldn't without Warner.

 

[Top_Cat]

It's Lyon. Bowled all the overs and took all the wickets. You're being contrary here.

 

[MW1304]

Sure, but Warner was more pivotal. Could have won with other spinners (with more difficulty, of course), couldn't without Warner.

Couldn't without Handscombe either, doesn't make him MotM. Lyon bowled ten times better than everyone else and won them the game. Conditions suited to some extent, but he still considerably outbowled everyone. You've still got to take the wickets.

Lyon MoTM.

Smith a quiet series, so he'll be hungry for the Ashes then. Goody.
