IND vs AUS: Watch - Nathan Lyon's Arm Ball Rips Through Ravindra Jadeja's Defence In Indore

In the ongoing third Test match between India and Australia at Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore, spinner Nathan Lyon picked up his third wicket, in the form of Ravindra Jadeja. Lyon had already claimed two wickets and played a crucial role in dismissing India’s middle-order batsmen before he sent the Indian all-rounder back to the pavilion.

It was the 31st over of India’s innings, and Ravindra Jadeja was trying to build a partnership with Cheteshwar Pujara. However, Lyon’s flighted delivery proved to be too much for him to handle. Jadeja was caught off guard as the ball skidded off the deck and hit him on the pad before deflecting onto his bat’s splice. The Australian team was quick to appeal, and the umpire gave Jadeja out.

Ravindra Jadeja was visibly disappointed with the decision and decided to review it. The UltraEdge showed that the ball hit the pad first, indicating no inside edge. And, to Jadeja’s dismay, the decision was not overturned, and he was declared out LBW. Lyon had claimed his third wicket of the innings.

Ravindra Jadeja’s dismissal further dented India’s chances of setting up a decent total in the second innings. The pitch had already shown signs of being a spinner’s paradise, and Lyon’s accurate bowling made it difficult for the Indian batsmen to score runs freely.

Lyon’s spell proved to be vital in putting Australia on top, and India’s hopes now rest on their lower order to add some valuable runs to the scoreboard.

India’s chances of gaining a substantial lead over Australia in the third test match lie on the shoulders of Cheteshwar Pujara, who has been in excellent form recently. He displayed exceptional calm and talent in scoring important runs on a challenging surface.

To put pressure on the Australian squad, the Indian batters must draw inspiration from his attitude and form partnerships in the remaining innings. Day 2’s final session will be critical, and it will be intriguing to see how the Indian bowlers react on this spin-friendly ground.
