Posted by on Mar 31, 2018 in Test Matches | 0 comments

NM Lyon  of South Africa returned with figures of 3 for 182 in South Africa’s first innings in the ongoing  test at Johannesburg to provide the thirteenth occasion of  an Australian bowler conceding 175 plus runs in a test innings. All such occasions are tabulated below. NM Lyon became the first Australian bowler to concede 175 plus runs against South Africa in a test innings and thus earned the tag of becoming the most expensive bowler against South Africa in a test innings. The previous record was held by SK Warne who  had  conceded 161 runs and captured six  wickets at Cape Town in Mar 2002.
