Nathan Lyon Becomes 3rd Australian To Take 400 Test Wickets

Nathan Lyon, Australian spinner, became the third cricketer from Australia to complete 400 wickets on December 11. He achieved the milestone at the opening Test against England at Gabaa, Brisbane. ''He becomes the 17th player to achieve the milestone, joining Shane Warne and Glenn McGrath,'' tweeted Cricket Australia. However, Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan is at the top with 800 wickets. ''It's pretty amazing to get the breakthrough,'' said Lyon.
