4th Test: Lyon, Boland Frustrate India As Aussies Extend Lead To 333 Runs At Stumps
Boxing Day Test: A solid 51-run stand for the final wicket between Nathan Lyon (41 not out) and Scott Boland (10 not out) frustrated India as Australia extended its lead to 333 runs after reaching 228/9 in 82 overs at stumps on day four of the Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
On a day of glorious Test cricket action, India had got rid of Marnus Labuschagne, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins in the final session, and the possibility of them kickstarting their chase before stumps seemed clear. But Lyon and Boland batted together for 110 balls, and ensured their resistance left India agitated in front of 43,867 fans.
It would be interesting to see if Australia would continue batting tomorrow or declare overnight and push India into a remarkable chase – the highest-ever in the MCG - on final day’s play.
