Nathan Lyon left no stone unturned as the Australian off-spinner sledged KL Rahul asking him what did he wrong to change his batting position in the ongoing fourth Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). The incident unfolded just after the dismissal of Rohit Sharma.
As Rahul came to the crease at No.3 following the dismissal of his captain, Lyon was heard asking the India batter, “What did you do wrong to bat one down?” Cleary, Lyon was mocking Rohit’s decision to open the batting for India after the right-hander lasted only five balls at MCG.
Lyon’s comment came in after Rohit, who batted at No.6 in the second and third Tests and left the opening slot to KL Rahul, decided to return to his original opening position. It prompted Rahul to drop at No.3.
The decision did no good for India as the skipper lasted only five balls for his three runs, thus continuing his woeful run with the bat in the longest format of the game.
The MCG Test match has been no short of dramas from day 1. After Rohit dropped Gill for Washington Sundar, the Virat Kohli-Sam Konstas incident grabbed the headlines on Thursday.
