The game ended very early on day five as India folded for just 140 in the second innings. Lyon finished the game with eight wickets and deservedly got the 'Player of the Match' award. He was brilliant throughout the game and dominated the Indian batsmen, especially in the second innings.

Lyon was full of energy on day five. With Australia closing in on the win, the Aussie spinner had a few verbal exchanges with the Indian batsmen. Hanuma Vihari was at the receiving end this time.

“Where are you going for your Christmas holiday? I hear Hamilton Island is a nice place,” Lyon said to Vihari.

He also had a dig at Ishant Sharma. “Ishant what do you want? What are you looking for?” Lyon asked as Sharma tried to take guard.
