On behalf of Driver Avenue Group we’d like to congratulate Nathan Lyon on a great job in Australia’s 3rd Test win over India, a great Test win.

In taking 8 for 64 in India’s 2nd innings of the 3rd Test in India Nathan achieved:

• Player of the Match
• 479 Test Wickets (238 home; 241 away)
• the 2nd best figures ever for Australia in Tests against India behind his own 8 for 50 in Bengaluru during the 2017 tour.
• Become the only Australian spinner to take 8 wickets in a test innings twice.
• Become the leading wicket taker of all time in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy
• The most Test wickets in Asia by a player from outside the continent.
• Taken more five-wicket hauls against India than any other bowler.

That’s a big day out!

Well done, Nathan 👏👏👏

A magnificent career in all conditions. How many bowlers would have an almost 50/50 record of their wickets split between their country and playing in other countries?
