NEW DELHI, Feb 18: Nathan Lyon (4/25) ran through India’s top-order as the hosts reached 88 for four at lunch on day 2 of the second Test here on Saturday.
Resuming at 21 for no loss, openers Rohit Sharma (32) and KL Rahul (17) could only add 25 runs before Lyon trapped the former leg before.
The senior off-spinner then went on to get the wickets of Rohit, Cheteshwar Pujara (0) and Shreyas Iyer (4) in a hugely productive morning session for the visitors.
India trailed by 175 runs at lunch.
