Ollie Robinson 8(39)
102.2
Lyon to Robinson, out Caught by Smith!! Edged and swallowed at first slip! Just the tonic Australia needed before the break. Lyon was always a threat, it was only a matter of him landing it in the right areas with the right angles. This is round-the-wicket, and goes with the angle while Robinson searches for any turn on offer. Ends up getting the outside edge and the Australian skipper holds on in the cordon. Now then, just two more wickets remaining for Australia. One more right now and the break will have to be extended. Robinson c Smith b Lyon 8(39) [4s-1]
