4th Test: Lyon Labels Jaiswal Run Out As 'one Of The Best Barbecues'
Nathan Lyon: Nathan Lyon humorously dubbed Yashasvi Jaiswal's run-out as "one of the best barbecues" after the mix-up triggered a late Indian collapse on Day 2 of the fourth Test at the MCG. The incident, which turned a solid Indian reply into a precarious position, could prove to be the defining moment of the Test.
India were cruising at 153/2, with Jaiswal and Kohli compiling a 102-run partnership before disaster struck. In the 43rd over, Jaiswal flicked a delivery from Scott Boland towards Pat Cummins at mid-on and instinctively called for a quick single.
However, Kohli remained stationary at the non-striker’s end, leaving Jaiswal stranded in the middle of the pitch. Cummins swiftly gathered the ball and threw it to Alex Carey, who completed the run-out. The dismissal ended Jaiswal's promising knock of 82 and triggered a collapse that saw India lose three wickets for just six runs in the final 30 minutes of play, leaving them at 164/5 by stumps, trailing Australia’s formidable first-innings total of 474 by 310 runs.
