Nathan Lyon discusses Australia’s past performance in India in 2023:
Australia’s two-decade wait for a series victory in the peninsula continued when they travelled to India as the No. 1 rated team in the World Test Championship (WTC) standings. The four-match series ended with a 2-1 victory for The Men in Blue. But even though they started off with a 2-0 deficit, the visitors showed incredible grit. Lyon bemoaned the team’s failure during the second innings of the second Test in Delhi.
“In Delhi, we panicked for 45 minutes with the bat, and that put us well and truly behind the eight-ball. We learned from that and we improved in Indore. The back-end of the series I am really proud about,” he continued. “If we had identified the bigger moments quicker than what India did a couple of months ago I feel like we would have been in good shape to win that series, but in the end, India was too good,” Nathan Lyon told AAP.
