Thanks to the efforts of Axar and Ashwin, India kept Australia’s first-innings lead down to just one run. Australia have started aggressively in their second innings scoring 61-1, but Lyon said he will not get into any target setting at the moment

Had Nathan Lyon been an India skipper, he would have issued a quick rebuttal if someone had dared to refer to Axar Patel and Ravichandran Ashwin as lower-order batters.
On an interesting second day, Ashwin (37) and Axar (74) added 114 runs for the eighth wicket after India had slumped to 139-7, with Lyon taking his 22nd five-wicket haul in Test cricket.
