Test Match Special · The Ashes: Defiant Stokes, but England face mammoth task · 18 Dec 2025 podcast

He's found a way to take...

ways to take wickets so uh yeah he's had to wait a little while but when it came it came in one over and uh you know he's now at 564 wickets and uh yeah very very deserved he'll be remembered as one of the greats um you know easily the greatest off-spin bowler australia's seen you know it's hard to to go past warning uh he was something pretty special but uh nathan lyon is pretty special in this team and for him to get that

um 564th wicket today i think is is very special and you know i'm really happy for him he deserves it uh great bowler great cricketer for australia leads the the team song uh so he's a massive part of this team and we saw when he got left out in brisbane he was uh he he he wasn't he was filthy filthy wasn't he he was filthy so uh yeah to come out and get those wickets early and

Yeah, it's probably been in the back of his mind.

Now he can just focus on going out there and playing.

And, yeah, no, I'm really happy for him.

Yeah, he looked good.

Yeah, so I was curious to see how he'd go because the first test against England last year, I thought our bowlers were a little bit underdone and it showed in that first test and Australia lost that one over in Perth.

But Pat Cummins, I think he...

To be honest, I think he would have been ready to go in Brisbane.

So he's been ready to go for a while.

He's been bowling a fair few overs in the nets, but that is never the same as out in the middle.

And yeah, he's got good control.

He knows the game well.

the last thing Australia wanted to do was to be complacent.

So he wanted to hit the ground running and got the balls in the right area.

And I think that early wicket of Crawley was not a bad delivery.

That just helps you relax and get into your innings.

And he did that today.

I thought he bowled well.
