Nathan Lyon received high praise from all quarters for his brilliant performance after he took six wickets against England. Thanks to his brilliant bowling, Australia demolished England by 251 runs at their Edgbaston ‘fortress’ to win the first Ashes Test Monday.
Lyon ran through the England batting line-up like hot knife through butter with the English batters having little or no answers to the guile of the Australian off-spinner. While Lyon was praised from all quarters, it is the tribute by a fan that is winning over the internet.
Big Bash League franchise Sydney Sixers’ “Lyon King” took the cake with fans on Twitter going gaga over the video.
Have a look at the video and reaction of Twitteratis:
